Client Engagement & Adoption
• Understand customer requirements and translate them into practical technical solutions.
• Provide guidance, training, and support during and after implementation.
• Communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Quality Assurance & Handover
• Lead smooth transitions from project delivery into Service Delivery.

• Windows Server upgrades and AD modernisation
• Network redesigns (VPN, multi-site, firewall integration)
• Backup & DR (Azure Backup, ASR)
• Projects typically run 10–25 days across 50–100 user environments.
Main Responsibilities
• Deliver multiple concurrent technical projects to time and quality standards.
• Work closely with IT Project Managers to plan resources and track progress.
• Provide regular updates to customers and internal stakeholders.
• Push back constructively on unrealistic demands, offering achievable alternatives.
• Create and maintain clear, accurate technical documentation.
• Present technical updates confidently to a range of stakeholders, including senior leaders.
• Support onboarding and mentoring of junior members of the team.
• Maintain high performance against KPIs such as Quality Score and Customer Feedback (target: 90%+).
Measurable Outcomes
• Projects delivered on time, within budget, and to client satisfaction.
• Comprehensive and clear project documentation.
• Continuous professional development through training and hands-on experience.
