Workspace Patch Engineer - Contract until February - £250 - £260 /day - Peterborough (Hybrid)
We're working with a leading organisation in Peterborough that needs someone to take full ownership of patch management and vulnerability remediation across a mixed Windows and macOS estate.
This isn't a BAU helpdesk role - you'll be the go-to person for patching, working closely with the security team's vulnerability reports, deploying updates, and making sure the estate stays secure and compliant.
What you'll be doing
- Taking full responsibility for patching and vulnerability remediation for laptops and desktops
- Working from vulnerability data provided by the internal InfoSec team (via Tenable/Imperva, etc.)
- Using Intune and Autopilot for deployment and patching (SCCM recently retired)
- Supporting a growing Mac estate - Jamf knowledge is a bonus
- Rolling out OS refresh projects (both Windows and macOS)
- Sharing your knowledge with 2 onsite colleagues so patching can be sustained long-term
- Occasionally liaising with IT infrastructure and desktop teams
What we're looking for
- Strong background in patch management in a corporate or large-scale environment
- Hands-on experience with Intune / Autopilot
- Experience in mixed Windows & macOS environments (Jamf a plus)
- Ability to work from vulnerability reports to plan and execute patching
- Good communication skills for knowledge sharing and documentation
- Ideally 5+ years in IT, progressing from desktop support through to modern workplace management
If you want a role where you can focus on security patching without BAU distractions, and work with a supportive local team, then apply now as this is a great opportunity and one of our team will be in touch to discuss this with you further.
