Would you like to live in the Highlands of Scotland where the lifestyle is as important as the work?
sfG Software are looking for an experienced Senior IT Support Technician with at least 4 – 5 years’ experience for their busy office.

Job Objectives
The successful applicant will be involved in all aspects of the IT support role for our many varied clients, from 1st line support through to managing IT projects. The ability to work within a team as well as using your own initiative is essential. Most of the time you will be office based; however, there will be times where you will be required to go to a customer’s site, so your own transport is essential.

There is a mandatory rota for out of hours cover (1 week/weekend in every 2 months)
We believe that people skills are just as important as technical skills, so we are not looking for technical experts who want to sit in a dark room.
