Infrastructure Engineer - VetPartners, York, UK

We have an exciting opportunity for a person to join our busy Infrastructure Team working on a range of activities across a wide range of infrastructure and security disciplines, delivering Business-as-Usual support to all of our IT Infrastructure.

With sites across the UK, our IT infrastructure team supports all users across the business, providing customer service to our practices, who employ more than 8500 colleagues, caring for millions of our nation’s animals. Support teams react quickly and positively to incoming incidents, determining whether issues can be resolved internally, or need escalation – which you will then own, as the recipient of more technical queries. The successful candidate will report to the Infrastructure Manager, and work closely with colleagues in the Service Delivery, Projects, Security and Technical teams.

  • Manage multiple managed service providers to drive fault resolution and change on hardware/software/cloud solutions
  • Documenting fixes – you will enjoy building a Knowledge Base to share between colleagues
  • Support the projects team with infrastructure support and project delivery using your specialist skill set
  • Proactive monitoring and maintenance of infrastructure estate, using RMM platforms
  • React to security alerts highlighted to VP from infosec toolsets, respond to output from penetration tests to remedy vulnerabilities

  • Ensure ITSM tooling platforms are actively maintained with ticket updates, problem records, change notifications and asset management
  • Play a key role in developing and implementing service improvements
  • Provide support and mentoring to colleagues across the IT Service

The position will be based primarily in York – where our team works from a friendly central support office, with flexibility for 2 days based at home, though may require occasional travel to other UK sites for, major issue resolution.

Required Skills:

  • From a highly technical background, with experience of ensuring the lights are on 24x7 with only limited and controlled downtime
