Key responsibilities:

• Support and maintain Cisco network infrastructure
• Provide 3rd line support across server and network environments

• Strong Windows Server and Active Directory experience
• Good firewall knowledge
• Experience working with Azure
• Broad enterprise infrastructure experience
• Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills
• Comfortable remaining technically hands-on
• Full Drivers License

A current CCNP qualification would be beneficial, although recent practical Cisco experience is more important than certification alone.
