Azure Specialist

Microsoft Technical Specialist  

Local Microsoft consultancy and software provider has an immediate requirement for a hands-on person experienced in cloud hosting platforms. Experience can be in-house or from working in a consultancy or managed service environment. Brilliant role.

 

Who are you?

First and foremost you will be a hands-on technical person who loves making improvements, working with new kit and using new technology to boost performance and service within businesses. You will need to have experience and a passion for cloud technology but also appreciate that you can get called into supporting issues with clients who aren’t quite there yet in terms of adopting a full cloud platform.

You will be a keen technology person – interested in what’s new, happy to undertake training courses in the latest Microsoft releases and keen to make recommendations to clients. You will need to have experience in rolling out cloud solutions in a live business environment. MS 365 rollout experience is ideal.

You want a role that puts you in the middle of things – working alongside developers, consultants and the clients themselves to recommend, install, integrate and support MS Cloud Solutions across a range of organisations.

 

The Role

The role exists as an interesting combo of responsibilities – a bit of a Jack of All Trades scenario where you are not pigeon-holed and will often have to think on your feet and lend support across a range of areas. You will work closely as a conduit between developers, implementation consultants, project managers, the client and Microsoft as a vendor.

Key responsibilities are to scope out customer infrastructure requirements from initial gap analysis stage right through to managing installation and integration of the software environment and eventually providing resolution to any higher-level support issues on a third line basis.

You will need to be experienced with the following:

• Microsoft business platforms (Exchange O365, AD, Sharepoint, SQL, Windows Server etc)
• Understanding of Storage Area Networks and backup systems
• Knowledge of VMware ESXi
• Understanding of IT security, risk management, DR and continuity solutions
• Experience in managing change and roll-outs in a live commercial environment

 

You also need to be able to keep a clear head, have strong communication skills and get a thrill out of solving problems. This is a new role and an opportunity to learn and take the lead in recommending up-to-the-minute MS Cloud Solutions and help take a range of recognsiable household name companies into the cloud.

 

Company

Microsoft Gold Partner business providing comprehensive solutions and customised products to a vast range of household name businesses across NI and beyond. The company works closely with Microsoft and is at the forefront of designing, installing and supporting up-to-the-minute MS cloud technology to multiple clients. They are currently involved in some of the largest high-value implementation projects in Ireland.

Competitive salary available as well as health care, life assurance, bonus, laptop / phone, work from home options and Microsoft training.
