Are you an experienced IT Support Engineer who enjoys solving the problems that don't have an obvious answer?

We're looking for an IT Support Engineer to join a busy environment, providing hands-on technical support across a varied client base.

This is a role for someone who can do more than follow a runbook. You'll be trusted to investigate issues properly, identify root cause, take ownership and see problems through to resolution.

What you'll be doing
  • Resolving escalated 2nd/3rd line technical issues
  • Taking ownership of complex incidents through to resolution
  • Supporting and maintaining multiple client environments
  • Administering Microsoft 365, servers, networks and endpoints
  • Supporting Exchange Online, Entra , SharePoint and One Drive
  • Managing Microsoft Intune and endpoint environments
  • Supporting Windows Server, Active Directory and Group Policy
  • Troubleshooting TCP/IP, DNS and DHCP
  • Working with routers, switches, firewalls, VLANs and VPNs
  • Supporting Hyper‑V and/or VMware environments
  • Maintaining physical and virtual servers
  • Troubleshooting backup and recovery issues
  • Supporting infrastructure migrations and improvement projects
  • Assisting with patching, security remediation and maintenance
  • Working with third‑party suppliers and technology vendors
  • Maintaining accurate technical documentation
  • Sharing technical knowledge with less experienced engineers
What we're looking for

You must have:

  • At least 3 years' hands-on experience within an MSP
  • Strong 2nd/3rd line technical support experience
  • Excellent troubleshooting and problem-solving ability
  • Experience taking ownership of escalated technical issues
  • Strong Microsoft 365 administration experience
  • Experience with Intune, Active Directory and Group Policy
  • Windows Server administration experience
  • Good networking knowledge including TCP/IP, DNS and DHCP
  • Experience with switches, routers, firewalls, VLANs and VPNs
  • Hyper‑V and/or VMware experience
  • Backup and recovery experience
  • A methodical approach to troubleshooting
  • The ability to work independently without constant direction
  • Strong client communication skills
  • A full UK driving licence
  • To be based in Edinburgh or the surrounding area

Microsoft certifications are desirable, particularly across Microsoft 365 and Azure, but practical hands‑on experience is more important.

Desirable experience
  • Experience with Microsoft Azure infrastructure
  • Uni Fi
  • Linux
  • AWS
  • SAN/NAS
  • Power Shell or scripting/automation
What you'll get
  • £36,£000-£42,000 salary depending on experience
  • Hybrid working - Typically 1-2 days per week on client site
  • Support towards relevant professional accreditations
  • Educational assistance for relevant courses

plus other benefits!

This is a great opportunity for an experienced MSP engineer who wants to step into a genuinely senior technical position where they're trusted to investigate, solve and improve - rather than simply close tickets.
