Our client is a UK subsidiary of a global financial house working in multiple markets and asset classes.

About the project:

The Workspace engineer will be supporting the operational delivery of the BANK Virtual Desktop Estate and its associated services. This role has a key focus on assisting with the technical delivery of strategic projects, in addition to ongoing operational support of services.

This role is for a EUC-focused technology specialist with exceptional technical skills to join a highly driven, motivated, and skilled third-line team, supporting a Virtualised Desktop environment/platform comprising multiple technologies/products.

Agility, customer-centricity, and creativity will be critical for the successful candidate to fit into the organization. The Citrix Engineer performs a wide variety of evaluations, maintenance, installation, and training tasks to ensure the enterprise Citrix systems and infrastructure-related equipment meet company and user satisfaction.

This combined with a large project pipeline, will allow someone with the right skills to have exposure to both BAU and project work. The environment is fast-paced and allows huge exposure to the latest technologies, coupled with the ability to be involved with the planning, design, and commissioning, of new and existing requirements.

This is a role where knowledge is openly shared and solutions are driven as a team. Open communication is a key and the candidate should excel at communication skills and have great attention to detail.

Within the role you will provide 3rd line support, infrastructure delivery, BAU, and project-based work across the enterprise.

You will enable infrastructure strategy to be realized via information and knowledge sharing with other infrastructure team members as well as architects.

This is a 3rd / 4th line role, this is not a generalised support role, therefore the individual must be able to lead initiatives and pieces of work allocated to them. We need some with freeform thinking as this will not be task orientated. It is an opportunity for someone to add real value and benefit to an existing team.
