At Davies North America, we're at the forefront of innovation and excellence, blending cutting-edge technology with top-tier professional services. As a vital part of the global Davies Group, we help businesses navigate risk, optimize operations, and spearhead transformation in the insurance and regulated sectors.

Key Responsibilities As a Technical Operations Analyst, this role is crucial in ensuring the smooth operation and reliability of IT services and infrastructure. Your responsibilities bridge both proactive measures to prevent service disruptions and providing the required technical support and expertise to the Service Operations Team to aid ticket and problem resolution.

The Technical Operations team adopt an automation-first, problem management-focused mindset for ticket management and resolution, focussing on addressing the root cause of issues not just the symptoms, to prevent repeat occurrences.  This role is essential in providing technical resolutions to tackle underlying issues.

  • Use monitoring tools to continuously manage the health of the IT services and infrastructure, identifying potential issues before service disruption occurs.

  • Plan and carry out approved changes, with CAB approval when required, ensuring implementation is completed with no unplanned service disruption. 
  • Carry out Ticket resolution through the ITSM tool in line with Service Management Processes and Procedures, taking ownership and seeing issues through to resolution. 
  • Reduce repeat IT issues by driving the resolution of problems rather than addressing individual issues
  • Produce and review Knowledgebase articles to ensure that common issues/requests can be resolved by multiple colleagues with consideration to whether resolution can be achieved by Service Operations Analysts or potentially the end user/customer themselves.
  • Provide technical expertise and fault diagnostic skills for a range of key technologies to lead incident resolution activities, including Major Incidents, where required
  • Work with other Technical Operations Analysts to supplement knowledge when resolving complex incidents along with seeking advice and guidance from Senior Technical Leads or members of other IT teams when required.

    • Microsoft Active Directory and EntraID for both user/group management and Group Policy configuration

    • Patching and configuration management tools/MDM - ideally Microsoft SCCM and IntuneServer hardware management – ideally HPE and/or Cisco UCS
    • Enterprise storage management (SAN/NAS)
    • Wired and Wireless networking infrastructure – ideally Cisco including Meraki
    • Network security technologies – firewalls, loadbalancers, web filtering, VPN
  • Ability to perform standard tasks across a broad range of systems, working from documented procedures to ensure cross-cover for the range of technologies
  • Ability to diagnose common issues across applications deployed on Windows servers (firewall issues, services failing to start etc.).
  • Proven understanding of networking concepts including switching, routing, DNS, DHCP, VLANs, VPN.
  • Proven ability to use monitoring tools, such as SolarWinds, extracting logs and metrics for analysis of incidents along with proactively identifying and avoiding future risks to service
  • Experience of scripting tools, ideally PowerShell, for efficient management of systems and automation of common tasks
  • Experience running standard backup and restore tasks with Enterprise backup systems such as Veeam and Commvault is essential whilst ability to manage and maintain the underlying backup platform is desirable
  • Understanding of SQL database servers is desirable
