**About the role**

We are seeking to appoint to the key role of Systems Administrator within our established and highly impactful IT Team, to deliver a varied, complex and stimulating workstream on a permanent, full-time basis. Although primarily based in central Oxford, the department are open to a hybrid working arrangement at typically two days per week from home.

This post presents a great opportunity to get involved in supporting a thriving academic department to achieve its vision of a workplace where all staff and students can achieve their full potential. Many of the department’s members are involved in challenging and innovative projects, which increasingly require specialist IT systems and technical support. The IT Team collectively manage 1500+ devices and systems providing facilities and services to 700+ department members and 800+ undergraduate students, as well as numerous visitors and collaborators.

As Systems Administrator, within the IT Team of seven, you will collaborate in the longer-term planning, security and development of these IT systems, using your technical expertise to support the Head of IT in delivering several projects. You will also work closely and collaboratively with the other IT Team members to deliver a high level of frontline and remote technical support. This will require significant initiative and problem-solving skills, including the development of new and novel solutions where appropriate.

**About you**

A collaborative approach will be a key feature of your role, yet you will be required to work independently, taking the lead to progress initiatives and adopting a systematic and methodical approach to problem-solving in a complex environment. You will be able to handle a demanding and varied workload, managing your time and prioritising your work effectively. You will be an enthusiastic and committed individual who welcomes the opportunity to contribute effectively to a wider team, and who is able to respond positively to new challenges.

**Application Process**

If no suitable applicants are identified at Grade 7, an appointment at Grade 6 (per annum) with an appropriate adjustment to the duties may be considered.
