So, if you want to be part of a diverse team where opportunities flow and fresh ideas are welcomed, #JustAddWater.
Are you looking for a role where you can use your experience to bring about real change within a proactive and environmentally conscious company?
We currently have an opportunity available for an Application Specialist to join our team working in Exeter with a mix of office-based working and home working. Joining us on a full-time, permanent basis, you will receive a competitive salary of £35,000 - £46,000 per annum plus excellent benefits, including a £3,000 relocation expenses allowance!
About the role:
As our Application Specialist, you will make sure critical applications, interfaces and databases are secure, resilient, highly available and cost-efficient to support key business processes, and can scale to allow planned growth and change. This includes the administration of databases including SQL Server and Oracle.
Our Application Assurance team sits within Corporate Applications alongside two other teams, Data and BI, and Solution Delivery. Alongside this the IT department supports:

Ensuring latest patches, hot fixes and Service Packs are installed to ensure supported and secure.
Receive, prioritise and escalate incidents when considered appropriate and necessary to maintain service level expectations - these could manifest into Emergency Changes (when the system is down), planned changes or P1 Incidents, and could also lead to a PRB being created, to investigate the route cause (our ambition should always be to prevent any future tickets being raised for the same reason - if practical)
Plan and undertake upgrades to critical platforms and support the transition of new and upgraded IT services into operational use - usually from other areas within IT i.e. as a result of a Project, but could be as a request from the Business e.g. annual Billing or new features being switched on

Adept at presenting complex information in straightforward terms to a range of audiences
What's in it for you:
We know that the support and commitment of our staff is key to our success so you will receive the opportunity for ongoing development and training for a long-term career with us.
