As a leading provider of cloud, connectivity, cyber security, and managed IT services, this organisation helps more than 3,000 companies accelerate their digital transformation through high‑performance, fully integrated technology solutions. Their self‑owned, enterprise‑class network underpins secure, scalable and innovative services across cloud, communications, and critical infrastructure. With a strong reputation for technical excellence, industry accreditations, and 24/7 UK‑based support, they offer an exciting environment for candidates who want to work on cutting‑edge technology that drives real business impact.
As a Data Centre Operations Technician, you will take on hands‑on technical responsibilities across build, deployment, maintenance, and operational support, ensuring the smooth running of critical environments for a wide range of customers. SC clearance is required for this role, and the organisation will fully sponsor your vetting.
Key Responsibilities

* Deployment and support of server, network, storage and associated components
* Use of internal ticketing systems to maintain SLAs and ensure accurate updates
* Support remote access troubleshooting and LAN connectivity issues
* Power monitoring, PDU configuration and basic M&E awareness
* Asset accuracy and DCIM system updates
* Participation in change control and adherence to governance standards
* Maintaining a clean, compliant, and secure Data Centre environment
* Supporting audits, quality checks and continuous improvement initiatives
What We\'re Looking For
* Strong hands‑on Data Centre operational experience
* Confident with racking, cabling (copper & fibre), build, configuration and hardware swaps
* Solid experience in server, network and storage deployment
* Familiar with IT hardware concepts (RAID, SAN, x86, iLO, FC, Ethernet)
* Well‑organised, self‑motivated and able to work independently or within a team
* Strong communication skills and high attention to detail
* Local to Newcastle / North East—ideal for those seeking long‑term stability outside London’s DC hubs
* Full UK driving licence + access to a vehicle
* Willingness to undergo SC clearance (fully funded)
* Experience within a hyperscale or enterprise cloud data centre
* Experience with structured cabling design, testing and termination
Why This Opportunity Stands Out

* Clear long‑term progression with significant future hiring planned
* Strong training culture and internal development pathways
* Work Monday–Friday with no shift rotations
This is an excellent opportunity to join a rapidly growing UK technology provider operating its own national data centre estate. If you’re looking for a stable, hands‑on Data Centre role with major growth ahead, we’d love to hear from you.
