IT & Infrastructure Recruitment Consultant

Location: Coventry (Hybrid)

Salary: Up to £55,000 | Office-based

The Role

Are you a talented Systems Engineer looking to be at the core of technical operations for a group of growing UK businesses? We're working with a central services function supporting six business units across the UK, and they're looking for a 3rd Line Systems Engineer to join their Coventry-based infrastructure team.

This role sits at the core of the organisation's on-prem IT operations, providing third-line support and project implementation across infrastructure services. The ideal candidate will work closely with all business units to help transition systems into a unified central domain, ensuring minimal disruption and maximum efficiency.

While the broader business is embracing cloud for applications, this central function is very much on-prem focused — so your expertise will be crucial in supporting, expanding, and modernising their current systems.

• Collaborate with six UK business units to transition systems into a unified central domain.
• Support, expand, and modernise on-prem IT systems while the organisation embraces cloud where appropriate.
• Work closely with a close-knit infrastructure team to ensure minimal disruption and maximum efficiency.

The ideal candidate

This is a collaborative, growing function - ideal for someone who:

• Has worked through technical adversity and can clearly articulate how they troubleshoot and resolve complex issues
• Wants to grow with the business, specialise over time, and help shape the way central services operate
• Understands the challenge of working across multiple businesses with different standards - and is flexible enough to manage them effectively

Key Skills and Qualifications

• VMware
• HPE Technologies - HP switches, servers, and storage
• Microsoft 365 rollouts - including Intune, Exchange, Teams, and Entra ID
• Day-to-day infrastructure and networking - ideally with strong networking fundamentals (Cisco experience welcome)
