This role will work closely with our IT Systems Engineer, who is also based in the London office, and reports to the Director of IT, based in our Boston office. The ideal candidate is a self-starter who balances technical mastery with the collaborative autonomy needed to manage a regional site independently.

You should be comfortable working on-site 3 to 5 days per week to support our local infrastructure and team, with up to 2 days per week working remotely. This role also requires once-monthly travel to our Leeds office to provide on-site infrastructure and desk-side support.
  • Multi-Platform Expertise: Experience supporting a hybrid Windows and macOS environment, including hands-on administration of enterprise hardware and unified endpoint management (UEM) solutions (such as Jamf, Intune, or Kandji/Iru).
  • Systems Administration & Automation: Proficiency in Google Workspace and the Atlassian Suite (Jira Service Management & Confluence), with the ability to build Jira automations that streamline ticketing workflows.
  • Hardware & Infrastructure Lifecycle: Proven ability to oversee office AV and networking peripherals while maintaining a high-standard asset management process for a distributed EMEA workforce, from initial procurement to final decommissioning.
  • Service Excellence & Problem Solving: Exceptional troubleshooting and customer support skills, and the ability to balance on-site priorities with a high-volume SLA-driven remote support queue across different time zones.
  • Collaborative Autonomy: The ability to work effectively within a global IT team under minimal supervision, combining excellent communication skills with a collaborative approach to achieve regional and strategic goals.

WHAT YOUR SUCCESS WILL LOOK LIKE

  • After 6 months: You have established yourself as the trusted primary contact for the London and Leeds offices, maintaining 99.5% uptime for local AV and conferencing systems. You are navigating the Windows/macOS hybrid environment with ease and have taken ownership of Jira Service Management, including the implementation of at least two new automations to improve ticket routing.
  • After 12 months: You operate with full autonomy, managing the London office, the Leeds office, and the EMEA remote queue with such consistency that the Global IT team views the region as a gold standard for service delivery. You have streamlined the EMEA onboarding process, ensuring every new hire receives their equipment and access before their start date, with a white-glove orientation experience.
