I hope this is ok to post here, it has to do with Networking and Security.

I am stepping down from my position of Network Administrator for Edu-Prize School in Gilbert, Arizona and am making an attempt to get them a qualified replacement before I leave in two weeks. A little bit about the school can be found here, www.edu-prize.com.

The position is full time, Monday through Friday 7am-4pm with an hour lunch. You will be required to maintain the existing network and workstations as well as implement any new technologies. There are four servers in place and roughly 250 workstations. Workstations are 80% Windows 2000, 20% Windows XP SP2. 3 of the servers are Windows Server 2003 and one is Server 2000. There are no Mac machines here. Experience with Exchange Server 2003 is very important, as is experience with Cisco equipment. Experience with Sonicwall equipment would be a plus.

You will work alone to start with, they are in the process of building another campus so the position very well may lead into head of an IT department for the "district". Saalary will be dependant on experience. Discuss benefits over the phone or in your interview, I'm not sure of what they are, I'm just an IT guy.

So, call if you are interested 480-813-9537 ask for Kris, he is the Director of Operations and he will set up an interview with you. I'd like to see a fellow [H] member get this, it will make me feel a little better about leaving.
 
Anyone Specialists working under you or will this position be the ONLY PC person onboard?
Not a lot of servers to deal with, but 250 clients for one Admin could get hairy.

ehh, the network guy at my highschool has to do more than 250 clients (maybe near 500-600) by himself, he handles it pretty well

One word of advice - block a lot of sites and set up strict rules on internet and webmail. The only time our single IT guy had a lot of trouble was when MSBlaster did some damage, other than that, he pretty much sits around managing the servers or toying with the laptop carts. He seems to have a pretty good time actually.

Good luck to anyone who gets this job.
 
No specialists, you're a one man band. There really isn't that much day to day with the workstations, 90% of them are Dell Optiplex's covered under warranty, so if something breaks you just call them and they come out and replace parts.

The majority of day to day operations is really answering questions or quick fixes for staff.
 
I wish this had come along about 3 months ago!! I live at Valvista and Baseline and would have loved this job!

But alas I am starting my own business and dont meet ALL the requirements.. IE cisco but the others I am experienced.

I hope you find another good Gilbert [H] fellow around here.
 
I don't think 250 workstations it too big of a deal. Thats about what I deal with at the school I work for.

By the way if they want to pay my moving cost I will start next week. It sounds like the job I have now but in a place where I can ride my motorcycle all year and not the frozen wasteland of Michigan.
 
I feel kinda bad for you (or the guy who might get teh job), dealing (sometimes) with some asshat students doing retarded shit that compromises the network or similar is a real pain in the ass. Looks like you don't have to worry about that too much. :D
