Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be formally employed through an Employer of Record (EOR) arrangement. We are not an outsourcing agency. 

Who The Client Is: Our client is an established Australian IT services provider that helps businesses keep their technology secure, reliable, and ready to grow. They support clients across IT infrastructure, cloud solutions, cybersecurity, and ongoing technical support, while also helping them plan and deliver technology projects.

• Manage multiple clients, priorities and technical issues with minimal oversight.

• Design and implement end-to-end solutions across Microsoft, cloud, infrastructure, networking and cybersecurity environments.
• Work hands-on across Microsoft 365, Entra, Intune, Azure, Windows Server, networking, firewalls, backup and security.
• Assess existing client environments and recommend improvements to security, resilience, performance and efficiency.
• Ensure solutions are appropriately designed, documented and aligned with client requirements.

Project Delivery

• Own technical projects from discovery and scoping through implementation, testing and handover.
• Develop implementation plans, coordinate technical resources and manage dependencies.
• Manage project risks, timelines and competing priorities across multiple client environments.
• Ensure successful handover into ongoing support.

L3 Escalations

• Take ownership of complex L3 escalations across infrastructure, cloud, networking, Microsoft and cybersecurity.
• Troubleshoot complex technical issues and determine the appropriate resolution based on urgency and business impact.
• Delegate or escalate where appropriate while maintaining ownership through to resolution.
• Identify recurring issues and recommend longer-term solutions.

Security & Continuous Improvement

• Identify security risks and recommend appropriate controls and improvements across client environments.
• Support cybersecurity projects, remediation and ongoing security initiatives.
• Identify opportunities to improve service delivery through automation, scripting and better technical processes.
