About the Role

We are seeking a talented and experienced IT professional to join our Infrastructure Services team as a Senior Technical Specialist. This is an exciting opportunity to work with a wide range of technical systems and infrastructure, including perimeter security and firewall technologies.

As a Senior Technical Specialist, you will be responsible for the day-to-day operation, administration, and support of key technical stacks within your remit.

You should also have experience of working with network security solutions and be aware of vulnerability and threat management best practice and cyber security principles.

In addition, you should have experience of working with and administering Windows and Linux operating systems both on-prem and in the cloud. You should also be able to communicate complex issues both verbally and in written format in a concise and easy-to-understand manner at all levels.

We are committed to equality, diversity, and inclusion, and we welcome applications from all qualified candidates. We also offer flexible working arrangements to support employees in balancing their working life with other commitments.

About You

  • You should be qualified to NVQ Level 4 (or equivalent) or have proven substantial IT experience with evidence of operating at a practitioner level (SFIA level 3) in a large IT environment.
  • You should have experience in installation, configuration, and administration of firewall technologies and other security platforms.
  • You should have experience of working with network security solutions and be aware of vulnerability and threat management best practice and cyber security principles.
  • You should have experience of working with and administering Windows and Linux operating systems both on-prem and in the cloud.
  • You should be able to communicate complex issues both verbally and in written format in a concise and easy-to-understand manner at all levels.
  • You should possess excellent organisational skills with the ability to manage priorities and work to deadlines and be able to work systematically whilst remaining calm under pressure.

Interested in Flexible Working?

We are keen to support employees to balance their working life with other commitments. Therefore, wherever possible, we will consider working arrangements that suit an individual's personal circumstances whilst still meeting the needs of the Council.
