[Clug-work] Systems Administrator vacancy, University of Oxford, UK

[Matthew West]

We're looking for another systems administrator to join our 
IT team.

This is not a telecommute job.  The job is based in the UK, 
but I thought I'd pass it along to CLUG anyway.

Further details are below, and a full job spec is in the PDF 
linked to by the URL at the end.  You will need to arrange for 
a UK work visa or similar to be considered for the position.

If you have any questions about the position, feel free to 
e-mail either myself (mwest at maths.ox.ac.uk), or Dr Keith 
Gillow (gillow at maths.ox.ac.uk).
