At SP Energy Networks, we’re looking for an Application Administrator to join our Application Support team within Systems Maintenance and Optimisation, part of our Centre of Excellence. This is an excellent opportunity for someone earlier in their career or at a junior to mid level who is looking to build their experience within a supportive and collaborative environment.

What you’ll be doing

In this role, you’ll provide first line support to both internal and external customers, helping to resolve system queries and incidents across a range of applications. You’ll play an important part in ensuring a smooth user experience by responding to issues in line with service levels and supporting the ongoing maintenance of clear, up-to-date process documentation.

You’ll also gain exposure to wider system and business improvements, supporting activities such as user testing, training initiatives and communication updates. With guidance from the team, you’ll take ownership of issues, helping to see them through to resolution while building your confidence and technical knowledge. Regular interaction with colleagues will help you stay aware of ongoing work and contribute to team discussions around performance and improvements.

Working as part of a close-knit team, you’ll support the delivery of the wider business plan while developing your own skills. There will be opportunities to learn from others, build your understanding of systems and processes, and expand your experience across different areas of the department.

What you’ll bring
