Systems Administrator

We are seeking 2 experienced Systems Administrator to join our mining client in Perth for an initial 2-month contract.

• Contract initially 2 months + possible extensions
• Rate flexible (market rate)

• Mining experience ideally
• (8 days on/6 days off, 12-hour days, on-call responsibility, though with a very low after-hours callout rate) requires a high degree of independence
• Strong troubleshooting skills and a broad familiarity (but not necessarily deep knowledge) of PCs, servers (including virtualization) and network to layer 3.
• Duties range from password resets and new PC builds through to some operations-critical fault resolution.
• If the site loses all external comms, the incumbent needs to be able to troubleshoot and, if possible, restore connectivity with no more support than a network engineer via satellite phone.

Role 2: System Administrator (Perth based)

• Resolving failures of site IT infrastructure ( fixing things that may not be visible to users )
• Monitoring and maintaining all site IT infrastructure ( keeping an eye on the network and servers )
• Providing technical advice to site personnel on existing and potential IT systems ( talking IT when people have ideas or issues )
• Identifying, proposing and implementing opportunities to improve service delivery through technical, administrative and procedural initiatives ( continuous improvement )

Role Accountabilities:

• Provide level 1 (helpdesk) through to level 3 (infrastructure) support for all IT systems, either as directed or where required to maintain services uptime.
• This includes all IT systems on site, from desk phones and peripherals through to production-critical infrastructure
• Resolve IT incidents and requests according to KPIs, escalating where necessary and following through to customer satisfaction
• Monitor server/network performance to identify outages and failures, providing site notifications and resolving/escalating through to resolution.
