IT Systems Administrator Connolly Motor Group | Office based in Galway, Ballina or Sligo So, who are we?
Connolly Motor Group is one of Ireland's leading automotive groups, representing world-class brands.
Behind the showroom floor and the satisfied customers is a lean, sharp IT team keeping everything humming — and we're growing.
The Opportunity We're on the hunt for an IT Systems Administrator who genuinely loves what they do.
Not someone who just logs tickets and waits for five o'clock — we want someone who sees a repetitive manual task and immediately thinks "I could write a script for that."
You'll work directly with the Group IT Manager, supporting staff across multiple sites with everything from day-to-day helpdesk queries to infrastructure administration and automation projects.
No two days are the same, and that's exactly the point.
What You'll Actually Be Doing Owning the helpdesk — triaging, resolving, and closing tickets in Freshservice with speed and precision.
Users will know your name, and it won't be because things are broken.
Automating the boring stuff — if you're not reaching for PowerShell on a regular basis, we'll be disappointed.
Scripting, scheduling, automating — this is a core part of the role, not a nice-to-have.
Keeping the network healthy — working with our Cisco Meraki routers, Aruba switches, and VLAN infrastructure to ensure everything stays fast, segmented, and secure.
Managing the Microsoft 365 stack — Exchange Online, Teams, SharePoint, and Entra ID — you'll know your way around the admin portals with your eyes half-closed.
Onboarding you'll manage policies, review quarantine, and keep inboxes clean.
Supporting dealer systems — Keyloop DMS and other proprietary platforms are part of life here.
You'll learn them, support them, and not be fazed by them.
Remote support — you'll use our remote support tooling to resolve issues quickly without needing to be on-site for everything.
