Job Summary

We are seeking a proactive and technically skilled IT Administrator who will take ownership of all local IT infrastructure, networking, and system support. The successful candidate will be responsible for maintaining a secure and reliable IT environment, providing second-line user support, and ensuring business continuity through effective systems administration and vendor coordination.

This is not a first-line helpdesk role — the candidate must be confident managing and improving key IT systems independently.

Key Responsibilities

IT Infrastructure & LAN Support

Deploy, configure, and maintain office network equipment (switches, routers, firewalls, cabling, Wi-Fi, and printers).

Ensure high availability and stability of LAN and internet connectivity for all staff.

Proactively monitor network performance, troubleshoot issues, and implement improvements.

Maintain VoIP and telephony systems in coordination with service providers.

Support server infrastructure (file servers, domain controllers, backup servers).

Manage Active Directory (users, groups, GPOs, and permissions).

Ensure IT asset management, including procurement, inventory, and lifecycle tracking.

IT Services & Security

Provide second-line support for hardware, software, and connectivity issues.

Manage system backups, antivirus, endpoint protection, and patch management.

Implement and enforce IT security protocols (access controls, password policies, compliance with POPIA/FICA).

Ensure disaster recovery readiness and participate in business continuity planning.

Liaise with external vendors for advanced support, licensing, and procurement.

Evaluate and implement new IT solutions to improve efficiency and security.

User & Systems Support

Provide escalated support to internal staff and resolve complex IT issues.

Assist with integration of IT systems with CRM and business tools.

Develop internal documentation for IT procedures and provide basic training to staff.

Support reporting and data analysis tools (Excel, Power BI, SQL exposure advantageous).

Candidate Requirements

Minimum Requirements:

Degree/Diploma in IT or related field.

2–4 years of IT support experience, with a focus on LAN/network administration.

Strong troubleshooting skills across hardware, software, and networking.

Hands-on experience with Active Directory, Windows Server, and Office 365.

Familiarity with IT security best practices and data protection.

Ability to work independently and take ownership of IT environments.

Preferred:

IT certifications (CompTIA Network+, CCNA, Microsoft Certified).

Previous experience in a call centre or financial services environment.

Experience with VoIP and telephony systems.

Exposure to SQL, Power BI, or system reporting tools.

What We Offer

A fast-paced and collaborative working environment.

Opportunity to drive IT improvements and innovation.

Competitive salary and professional development opportunities.

A key role in shaping IT operations and ensuring secure, reliable infrastructure

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
