We require an enthusiastic Senior ICT Support Technician to lead and manage our IT technical support system alongside an ICT Technician.

The role is diverse and interesting, and the successful candidate would be required to run/manage the network as well as overseeing and maintaining all College hardware and software, budgeting and licensing.

Software and operating system deployments are managed using Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager (MECM), formerly known as SCCM.

The network infrastructure consists of Aruba switching and Ruckus wireless access points, both managed through their respective cloud platforms.

Printing services are managed through PaperCut, using Sharp multifunction devices, which are self-hosted. We also use Sharp-hosted on-prem systems for our retail (cashless catering) environment.
