IT Support Engineer - Windows / Microsoft

IT Support Engineer - Managed Services Sometimes the best time to join an IT business isn't when everything is already established - it's when things are moving quickly. Following the acquisition of another successful small MSP, this growing managed services business has seen strong traction and is now looking to add an IT Support Engineer to the team. This is a great opportunity for an IT professional with around 2-3 years' experience who wants to move beyond a traditional service desk role and get genuine exposure to a broad range of technologies, customers and project work. The environment is cloud-first, with a strong focus on Microsoft Azure, Intune, Microsoft 365, SharePoint, Teams and Windows 11. You'll have the opportunity to move between remote support, project work, client visits, hardware deployment and infrastructure management, depending on what the week brings. Even at junior level, engineers get meaningful exposure to projects including: Microsoft 365 migrations Server upgrades and changeovers New customer onboarding Laptop and desktop rollouts Microsoft Intune deployments Network and Wi-Fi installations Cloud phone system deployments Azure and Microsoft 365 projects Training and development are a genuine part of the role. You'll be given the opportunity to build your knowledge across the company's technology stack, with your responsibilities - and salary - increasing as your capabilities develop. Providing remote IT support to customers via phone, email and support systems Troubleshooting and managing Microsoft 365 and Windows environments Building and configuring laptops, desktops and other client hardware Supporting the rollout of new equipment at customer sites Assisting with networking, Wi-Fi, switches, routers and cloud telephony Supporting Microsoft 365, Azure, Intune and SharePoint environments Getting involved in migrations, onboarding and infrastructure projects Spending approximately 5-10 hours per week on client sites, depending on workload Helping maintain and improve existing customer infrastructure The customer base is spread across Northern Ireland, with most travel focused around Greater Belfast and County Antrim. We're looking for someone who already has a solid grounding in IT support and is now ready to broaden their skillset.

You'll need to be comfortable switching between priorities - perhaps troubleshooting a Microsoft 365 issue in the morning, building laptops in the workshop after lunch and then heading to a customer site to help with a rollout. In return, you'll get a relaxed and supportive working environment, exposure to a wide range of technology, strong investment in training and the opportunity to progress as the business continues to grow.
