Job Description

When the network goes down at this managed services provider in Vereeniging, you're the one who brings it back. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

  • Monitor servers, links and firewalls and act on alerts
  • Troubleshoot load-shedding related outages and UPS failures
  • Work with ISPs on link faults and fibre installs
  • Document network diagrams and change records
  • Plan hardware refreshes and licence renewals with a budget

You'll need

  • Clear change management and documentation habits
  • Strong Windows Server, Active Directory and Microsoft 365 skills, or Linux for Linux posts
  • Degree or diploma in IT, plus relevant certifications
  • Willing to do standby and after-hours maintenance

What you get

  • Funded certification path
  • Company laptop, phone and home internet allowance
