Role Overview

We’re working with a global trading and investment firm known for its deeply technical environment, where the performance of every workstation and cable connection counts. As part of their continued growth, they’re hiring a Moves-Adds-Changes (MAC) Engineer to support desktop infrastructure in one of the most demanding environments in the industry. This hands-on role runs on the evening shift (3pm–12am) and sits within a broader IT Operations team - covering everything from desktop builds and asset management to user onboarding and relocation work. With limited weekend hours and plenty of room for progression across end-user and systems support, this is a great opportunity to deepen your infrastructure skillset in a high-stakes, low-latency environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Carry out daily Moves, Adds, and Changes (MAC) activities across desktop hardware and trading floor infrastructure
• Lead end-to-end workstation setups, including PC imaging, hardware configuration, software provisioning, and user testing
• Support the relocation, decommissioning, and refresh of desktop technology in a fast-moving environment with no room for downtime
• Maintain and track IT assets using internal tooling - ensuring accuracy across procurement, stock levels, and deployment lifecycles
• Contribute to the onboarding of new users - delivering workstation setups, peripheral installs, and environment-specific configuration
• Assist in infrastructure extension projects, including structured cabling, workstation builds, and peripheral rollouts
• Collaborate closely with engineering and end-user teams to coordinate delivery of change activities without disrupting trading workflows
• Help test and roll out new desktop tools and configurations, feeding back on usability and deployment performance
• Ensure all changes are delivered with minimal disruption, using scripts and automation where appropriate
• Occasionally assist with physical tasks such as lifting, transporting, or installing equipment

What You’ll Bring..

• 2-4 years’ experience in a desktop support, infrastructure delivery, or IT operations role
• Proven ability to manage PC hardware, cabling, peripherals, and enterprise workstation rollouts
• Experience with asset tracking, user provisioning, and hands-on technology relocation across enterprise environments
• Confident working evening shifts (3pm-12am) with flexibility for occasional weekend work
• Highly organised with strong communication skills and the ability to coordinate change activities across teams
• Technically curious, with a genuine interest in infrastructure performance and operational reliability
