IT Systems Specialist, permanent 37.5 hours per week, £32,000-£35,000 per annum, plus staff benefits

?

Lowry is an internationally acclaimed cultural landmark situated at the heart of MediaCityUK, one of the world's most exciting culture and media destinations.

?

We're looking for a hands-on systems administrator who is as strong on people and process as they are on tech. Your mission is to standardise how our in-house systems are configured and used, so that the investments we make (e.g., Microsoft 365/SharePoint/Entra, Artifax, core infrastructure and any new platforms) are adopted, sustained, and controlled-not used differently by every team.

?

You will build and maintain clear operating standards, training and onboarding, and evidence-ready controls across our key platforms. You'll collaborate with colleagues at all levels to map structures, tidy data, lock in best practice and reduce one-offs, while also providing responsive IT support and contributing to infrastructure stability and cyber hygiene.

?

The role has a number of staff benefits including:

• Complimentary and discounted theatre and live event tickets.
• Free car parking just a few minutes' walk from the Lowry building.
• Paid day off for your birthday.
• Discounts at the bars, restaurant and gift shop located within the Lowry building.
• Access to Lowry's Wellbeing Hub and to other health and wellbeing services, including counselling, physiotherapy and remote GP appointments.
• Group Life Assurance Scheme.

?

Please note that MediaCityUK is a well-connected destination with a variety of different transport options - bus, car, tram and bike.
