Job Description

Senior Systems Engineer with NZ MSP experience wanted for a stable, well-regarded MSP in Timaru. Open to candidates relocating.

  • Senior role in a tight-knit team at a respected Southern MSP
  • Strong benefits: health insurance subsidy, on-call pay, training
  • Relocating to South Canterbury? We'd love to talk

About the company

Our client is a well-established MSP with about 90 staff across the South Island. They have a strong reputation and a stable client base, and they’ve been around for a long time. The Timaru office is a small team of seven, including engineers, managers and admin. It’s a team where people back each other, work hard and keep the banter going.

The role

You’ll be the senior technical lead for the Timaru client base, splitting your time between the office and client sites. Your clients will trust you, and the wider team will come to you for direction.

  • Own the technical relationship with a portfolio of local business clients
  • Support and maintain Microsoft environments and client networks
  • Deliver on-site and remote support, projects and improvements
  • Mentor engineers and set the standard for quality and service
  • Take part in a shared on-call roster of about 40 engineers, roughly one week in six, paid at $300 per on-call period whether you get called out or not

What you’ll bring

  • Solid experience at a New Zealand MSP, ideally in a senior or lead role
  • Strong Microsoft and networking skills
  • A confident, professional manner with clients. You’ll be the face of the business with any client.
  • Clear written and spoken communication
  • Leadership or mentoring experience, and familiarity with Halo PSA (nice to have)
  • A no-nonsense attitude. This team is direct and says what it thinks, so you’ll need thick skin and a good sense of humour.

What’s on offer

  • Competitive salary plus KiwiSaver
  • Subsidised Southern Cross health insurance
  • $300 on-call payment, mileage reimbursement, parking and a clothing allowance
  • Training and development if you want to grow
  • A stable company where hard work gets noticed

Thinking about a move?

If you’re in Auckland or elsewhere and you’ve been thinking about a change of pace, Timaru is worth a look. Housing is more affordable, commutes are short, and the mountains, lakes and coast are on your doorstep. If you’re thinking about relocating, we’d like to hear from you, and we’re happy to talk through the move.

This is an office-based role, Monday to Friday, at the Timaru office. You must have the right to live and work in New Zealand.
