provision for the department.
To be considered for the role you will have extensive experience installing
and maintaining a variety of Linux distributions preferably including Debian
and CentOS. Ability to use and an appreciation of the importance of automation
provided by configuration management tools (e.g. Ansible), along with
programming and scripting languages for system administration and strong
communication and organisational skills would be essential.
**The position is full time (part time considered) fixed term for two years.
The closing date for applications is noon on Friday, 19 January 2024.**
**You will be required to upload a CV and a cover letter as part of your
online application. The cover letter should clearly describe how you meet each
