IT Project Engineer

IT Project Engineer

Location: Bristol & client sites

Salary: Up to £47k

About the opportunity:

We're working with an established and growing IT Managed Service Provider that is looking for an experienced Project Engineer to join its delivery team.

This isn't a purely a delivery-focused or technical position. You'll need to be comfortable getting into the technical detail, working directly with clients and taking responsibility for making sure projects are delivered properly from start to finish.

Please note, this is an office and site-based role in Bristol and we can only consider local candidates with a driving licence and vehicle.

Responsibilities:

• Taking ownership of a range of IT projects, from smaller technical changes through to larger client deployments
• Working with clients to understand their requirements and turn them into practical technical solutions
• Producing project plans, technical proposals, estimates and supporting documentation
• Overseeing project delivery, managing priorities, dependencies, budgets and potential risks
• Getting hands-on where required with installations, migrations, upgrades and technical configuration
• Working closely with engineers, service desk teams, suppliers and third parties to keep projects moving
• Acting as a key point of contact for clients throughout delivery and keeping stakeholders updated
• Ensuring projects are fully documented and completed to a high standard

Requirements:

• Experience delivering IT projects within an MSP, IT consultancy or similar client-facing environment
• A strong technical background across Microsoft 365, Windows Server, Active Directory, networking, firewalls and endpoint technologies
• A track record of taking ownership of projects through the full delivery lifecycle
• Experience managing multiple projects or workstreams at the same time
• Strong problem-solving skills and the confidence to deal with technical issues and project challenges
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to build relationships and explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders
• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
• A commercial approach to project delivery, with an awareness of scope, costs, timelines and client expectations
