Largely remote but with monthly travel to France and occasional UK site travel
Fluent French is essential
Salary up to £65,000 + Benefits
Early stage, PE backed and highly acquisitive business is looking for an ambitious French speaking IT Engineer to join the team. The focus of this role will be integrating acquired businesses into the group with a focus on the French market. This will involve a great deal of project oriented migration work, across the Microsoft suite of products.
The role will involve monthly travel to France to meet with the acquired businesses senior leadership team, to understand the IT environment, and create a project plan to integrate them into the group structure. The ability to understand stakeholder requirements, give confidence and advice to non-technical stakeholders will be key at this stage. As will strong Project work and delivery experience.

- Firewalls & Antivirus
- Backup solutions
- Telephony
- Unified laptops / mobile
- Digitisation tools for acquired businesses

The business is UK based and they offer fully remote work, however there will be a need to travel to the offices of acquired businesses in France approximately once per month for a couple of days at a time, as well as to attend monthly team meetings in London with the odd day onsite in the UK as required. So flexibility with French and UK travel, with an otherwise remote work day is essential.
About you:
- Fluent French speaker, willing to travel to France a few times per month (expensed travel).
- Solid Project / Migration IT Engineering background with experience across the suite of Microsoft products (Mailbox / Sharepoint / M365). Experience with migration tools such as BitTitan / ShareGate and similar would be useful.

- Bright, ambitious, and excited to be on a business growth journey.
- Must be able to engage with all levels from the Board to users.
- Excellent stakeholder management skills; able to give confidence, build trust, manage expectations and ultimately deliver.
- The employer is open to someone at the earlier stage in their career who is looking for a really amazing growth opportunity, or someone who has lots of relevant experience that wants to deliver in a smaller more entrepreneurial environment.
