Job Description

Patch, monitor, back up and harden systems at a financial services company in Roodepoort. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

The site is in Roodepoort; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

  • Handle access requests and keep records that support POPIA compliance
  • Work with ISPs on link faults and fibre installs
  • Document network diagrams and change records
  • Plan hardware refreshes and licence renewals with a budget
  • Review security logs and investigate suspicious sign-ins

What you need

  • Willing to do standby and after-hours maintenance
  • Degree or diploma in IT, plus relevant certifications
  • Clear change management and documentation habits
  • Scripting in PowerShell, Bash or Python
  • Strong Windows Server, Active Directory and Microsoft 365 skills, or Linux for Linux posts
  • At least 3 years in systems, network or cloud administration

On offer

  • Company laptop, phone and home internet allowance
  • Funded certification path
  • Standby allowance and overtime for maintenance windows
  • Medical aid and provident fund

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: certification transcript from Microsoft, Cisco or AWS plus short summary of one infrastructure project you led.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 8 working days, usually by phone.
