IT Technician (PC/Server Build) – Burton-on-Trent – Full Time, Permanent
On-site (Must Drive)
Build cutting-edge server and PC solutions in a high-spec, precision-driven tech environment.
My client, a specialised technology solutions provider, is looking for an IT Technician with a passion for hardware, attention to detail, and the ambition to grow. This is a hands-on, varied opportunity to join a small, dynamic team where you’ll construct enterprise-ready servers and machines tailored for clients that rely on robust, on-premise IT infrastructures.
You’ll play a key role in the end-to-end system build process – from hardware assembly to software configuration and testing – ensuring everything meets rigorous technical specifications. It’s a great chance to develop your capabilities under the mentorship of the Technical Director and build a career that blends technical execution with broader project exposure.
Why it’s exciting:
This isn’t a benchwork-only role. You’ll have the chance to expand into mechanical and electrical assembly, liaise directly with internal and external teams, and even support client demos and system installations.

What you’ll be doing:
*
Building, configuring and testing server and PC systems
*
Installing and configuring operating systems and applications
*
Preparing full rack builds, cabling, and peripherals
*
Creating accurate build/test documentation and audit records
*
Supporting onsite and remote customer demos, testing and deployments
*
Collaborating cross-functionally to improve processes and gain new technical exposure
What you’ll bring:
*
Strong hardware knowledge (e.g., motherboards, graphics cards, storage)
*
Practical experience assembling and configuring PCs or servers
*
Comfort with Windows operating systems and basic network setup
*
Good documentation and communication skills
*
Ability to fault-find, troubleshoot and ensure consistent quality
*
A full UK driving licence
Nice to have:
*
Familiarity with enterprise-grade hardware and networking
*
General mechanical/electrical understanding (e.g., wiring, tools)
*
Experience in customer-facing support or installation roles
*
Certifications like CompTIA, MCP or equivalent are a bonus
Benefits & growth:
*
Extensive hands-on training and mentoring
*
Internal progression opportunities into enterprise hardware, customer support or project delivery
*
Supportive team culture with a focus on quality and growth
*
Career development across a unique hardware-software hybrid environment
