  • Monitor servers, links and firewalls and act on alerts
  • Manage users, groups and conditional access in Entra ID

  • Handle access requests and keep records that support POPIA compliance

You'll need

  • Solid TCP/IP, routing, switching and firewall knowledge
  • Scripting in PowerShell, Bash or Python
  • Clear change management and documentation habits
  • Strong Windows Server, Active Directory and Microsoft 365 skills, or Linux for Linux posts

What's in it for you

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