Monitor the health, performance, and security of IT systems, identify trends or recurring issues, and take proactive steps to improve service stability and reduce repeat incidents.

Support the implementation and operation of security controls, vulnerability remediation, endpoint hardening, and technical measures aligned to internal standards and frameworks such as ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials Plus.

Contribute to root cause analysis for significant or recurring issues, documenting findings, corrective actions, and recommendations for service improvement.

Support internal IT projects and change activity by completing technical tasks, assisting with implementation, testing, and rollout, and ensuring changes are delivered in a controlled and well-communicated manner.

Work closely with 1st line support and wider IT colleagues, providing technical guidance where required and ensuring appropriate escalation, knowledge sharing, and service continuity.

Maintain accurate records within the ITSM platform, ensuring tickets, technical actions, asset information, and support outcomes are documented to a high standard.

Provide flexibility for planned maintenance, patching, and change activity outside standard business hours where required, while maintaining professionalism, confidentiality, and adherence to company standards.
