Job Description

A manufacturing group with several sites in Stellenbosch needs infrastructure that just works, and someone to make it so. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

  • Handle access requests and keep records that support POPIA compliance
  • Monitor servers, links and firewalls and act on alerts
  • Document network diagrams and change records
  • Manage users, groups and conditional access in Entra ID

Must-haves

  • Solid TCP/IP, routing, switching and firewall knowledge
  • At least 3 years in systems, network or cloud administration
  • Clear change management and documentation habits
  • Willing to do standby and after-hours maintenance

What's in it for you

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