2nd Line Engineer | Bristol
Salary: £32-37k
Location: Bristol (Hybrid)
Type: Full-time, permanent
About the Opportunity
We are recruiting on behalf of an established Bristol-based managed service provider with a reputation for strong engineering discipline and high-quality service. They are looking for a 2nd Line Engineer to join their team.
If you want a role where you are more than a 'ticket-closer', and where you can be a mentor and a key contributor to technical processes, this could be the move for you.
The Role
As a Tier-2 escalation engineer, you will own the resolution of complex issues that go beyond the initial support desk. You will work within a modern tech stack (Microsoft 365, Azure, Intune and high-level networking) supporting a diverse SME customer base.
- Technical Escalations: Resolving complex issues across M365 (Exchange, SharePoint, Teams), Intune and Entra ID.
- Infrastructure & Networking: Troubleshooting firewall rules, VPNs, VLANs and hybrid identity setups.
- Mentorship: Supporting 1st line and apprentice engineers through pair-troubleshooting and knowledge transfer.
- Continuous Improvement: Identifying recurring ticket patterns and authoring runbooks to improve team efficiency.
About You
- Experience: 2+ years in an MSP 2nd line role or a senior in-house IT support position.
- M365 Knowledge: Proficient in admin tasks. Certifications such as MS-900 are expected, while MS-102 or endpoint admin certifications are highly preferred.
- Networking: Solid understanding of DNS, DHCP and firewalls. Experience with Aruba, Ubiquiti or DrayTek is a plus.
- Tooling: Familiarity with PSA/RMM tools such as HaloPSA and Datto, or equivalents like ConnectWise or NinjaOne.
- Communication: Calm, clear and professional written communication skills.
