Full-time Permanent Entry Level

Posted 23 Oct 2026

Description Finsbury Green is looking for a Junior Systems Administrator to join our Technology Services team at our Port Melbourne site.

This is a hands-on role for someone early in their IT career who has developed good technical fundamentals and wants to move beyond basic helpdesk support into broader systems and infrastructure administration.

You’ll work with an experienced internal technology team and gain exposure to servers, networks, Microsoft cloud services, cybersecurity, telephony, physical security systems and business-critical infrastructure across multiple Australian sites.

We don’t expect you to already know every technology we use. We’re looking for someone who enjoys understanding how systems work, approaches problems methodically and wants to develop into a capable all-round Systems Administrator.

What you'll be doing

You'll assist with the operation and improvement of our technology environment, including:

Windows Server, Active Directory, Entra ID and Microsoft 365 administration

User accounts, permissions, devices and access management

Windows endpoints and general technical support

Server, storage, virtualisation, backup and monitoring systems

Network switching, Wi-Fi, firewalls, VPNs and site connectivity

Zoom Phone, meeting rooms and communications systems

CCTV, cameras, access control and other physical security technology

Cybersecurity controls including MFA, endpoint security, patching and access control

Troubleshooting problems across endpoints, applications, servers and networks

Supporting new offices, warehouses and manufacturing sites





Working with technology vendors and specialist contractors

Maintaining technical documentation, asset records and network diagrams

Supporting our ISO 27001 security program

Using PowerShell and other tools to automate repetitive administration

Participating in infrastructure upgrades and technology projects

As your experience grows, you'll have opportunities to take greater ownership of systems and projects.

What we're looking for

This role would suit someone with approximately

1–3 years of commercial IT experience , although we're more interested in capability and attitude than an exact number of years.

You'll ideally have practical experience with some of the following:

Windows 10/11

Microsoft 365

Active Directory or Entra ID

Basic Windows Server administration

TCP/IP, DNS and DHCP

Wi-Fi and network troubleshooting

User and device administration

Basic PowerShell or scripting

IT security fundamentals

Experience with VMware, Fortinet, backup systems, CCTV, access control or Zoom is useful but

not required .

The kind of person we're looking for

Technical knowledge matters, but how you approach problems matters just as much.

You'll do well in this role if you:





naturally investigate how and why something has failed

are willing to try to solve a problem before escalating it

know when you need help and aren't afraid to ask

can follow a problem across several systems rather than treating each component in isolation

communicate clearly with technical and non-technical people

document what you've done

are careful when making changes to production systems

enjoy learning unfamiliar technologies

prefer understanding a system rather than simply following a checklist

You don't need to know everything. You do need to want to work things out.

You'll gain experience across a broad technology workplace including:

Windows Server and Active Directory

Microsoft 365 and Entra ID

VMware virtualisation

Enterprise server and storage infrastructure

Fortinet networking and security

Microsoft SQL Server

Multi-site networking, VPNs, switching and Wi-Fi

Zoom Phone and meeting-room technology

CCTV and physical security systems

Cloud and on-premises infrastructure

Manufacturing and warehouse technology

Internally developed business applications

Cybersecurity and ISO 27001

About the team

Technology Services is a small internal team, which means you won't be confined to one narrow area of IT.

You'll work primarily from our

Port Melbourne site , while supporting technology across our Australian operations.

You'll work alongside experienced infrastructure and software people who can help when you encounter something outside your current experience. At the same time, we'll expect you to become increasingly capab
