À propos
*Hours:* Full Time (37.5 hours per week)
*Job Type:* Permanent
*Location:* Leicestershire
*Reporting to:* Technical Director
*Salary:* £40,000 - £45,000 Based on Experience
*The Company*
This is an exciting opportunity to work as a project manager in a busy and growing company. You will join our fully integrated, full-service event agency (Premier Events)
Established in 2009, the company has grown rapidly; we employ 55 people and have a turnover of over £10m.
Our clients are global brands who look for us to provide them with exceptionally high-quality event scenery, display items and exhibition stands.
*The Role*
Reporting to our Technical Director, you will be responsible for IT across the business.
This isn’t a role where you’ll be buried in a server room. You’ll be visible, involved, and genuinely part of the team. One day you might be sorting a laptop for a new starter, the next you’re helping us hit our ISO 27001 targets or making sure our Microsoft 365 tenant is running the way it should. It’s a varied job, and that’s exactly the point.
What you’ll be doing
*Cybersecurity & Reliability*
* Implement and maintain cybersecurity measures in line with company standards
* Manage risk, backups, and business continuity
* Ensure systems are patched, protected, and monitored appropriately
* Respond to incidents and support resolution where required
*Infrastructure & Systems*
* Support and maintain IT infrastructure across devices, networks, and cloud services
* Administer Microsoft 365, including user management, configuration, and troubleshooting
* Manage user accounts, access, and device setup
* Look after our on-site servers and keep infrastructure healthy
* Keep our network in good shape (we run UniFi access points across site)
* Manage and maintain our VoIP phone system
* Manage our AI tooling, including Claude Enterprise, and help the team get the most from it
* Maintain documentation and system standards
*Hands-On IT Support*
* Be the first port of call for the team when something goes wrong
* Set up and deploy PCs, laptops, and mobile devices
* Troubleshoot hardware and software issues
* Support printers, phones, and office equipment
* Oversee onboarding and offboarding processes
* Ensure IT assets are tracked and maintained
*Applications & Systems*
* Support business applications and coordinate with third-party providers
* Help users make effective use of systems and tools
* Support the IT elements of our ISO 27001 programme alongside the wider team
*What we’re looking for*
*Essential experience*
* Experience in a senior IT support, IT Manager, or similar role
* Strong hands-on technical background in a Windows and Mac environment
* Good working knowledge of Microsoft 365, day-to-day admin and support
* Solid understanding of cybersecurity fundamentals and good practice
* Experience supporting end-user devices, networking basics, and general office IT
* Comfortable managing infrastructure including servers and cloud services
* Ability to take ownership and make sound decisions
*The kind of person you are*
You’ve got the technical skills, but more than that, you’re a good person to have around. You’ll be part of a busy, people-focused business. The team will come to you when things break, and sometimes when things aren’t even broken. You stay calm, you sort it, and you don’t make people feel daft for asking.
* Approachable and service-focused
* Comfortable being hands-on and visible within the business
* Practical, solutions-oriented mindset
* Strong communicator with non-technical users
* Organised and able to balance competing priorities
*What we can offer you*
* £40,000 – £45,000 depending on experience
* An annual holiday allowance of 22 days + Bank Holidays
* Earn an additional day's holiday for each full year of employment (Max 25)
