  • Administer endpoint management and provisioning tooling, including Ansible, Jamf, and Intune.
  • Oversee the purchasing, validation, and upkeep of hardware, machines, and shared office engineering equipment.
  • Drive continuous process improvements and reduce recurring technical issues through CLI work, scripting, and task automation.
  • Support physical office infrastructure and handle basic networking troubleshooting as required.

Requirements

  • Hands-on experience managing desktop engineering, workplace technology, or high-level IT support within a technical environment.
  • Strong troubleshooting expertise with a primary focus on Ubuntu/Linux, alongside working knowledge of macOS and Windows platforms.
  • Hands-on experience with endpoint management tools such as Ansible, Jamf, and Intune.
  • Proficiency with CLI operations, scripting, provisioning/rebuild workflows, and core networking fundamentals.
  • A deep interest in Linux operating systems, including familiarity with or exposure to various Linux distributions.
  • A proactive, self-sufficient approach with a willingness to own physical office tech hardware and infrastructure.
  • Ability to work on-site at the Moorgate, London office on a regular hybrid basis (at least 1+ days per week)

Benefits

  • Competitive annual salary up to £60,000 (commensurate with experience)
  • Company share scheme
  • Comprehensive benefits package

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.
