Whether you need cover while a staff member is away, a bridge while you recruit, or a permanent IT presence without the cost of a full-time hire, we place an experienced InterIntra engineer in your business for as long as you need them.
Your placed engineer isn't a lone contractor. They're a direct InterIntra employee, backed by our full security, infrastructure and cloud practice. When something complex comes up, the right specialist is a phone call away.
Back to IT Support overview →Our shortest placement is four weeks. Our longest to date has run over 36 months. The engagement scales to what your business actually needs, not what fits a standard contract.
Our minimum engagement is four weeks, enough time to genuinely know your environment and your people. Our longest running placement has exceeded 36 months. Engagements are structured around your situation, not a fixed product shelf.
Placements work alongside our full Help Desk & Support service, some clients use both, with the placed engineer as their primary day-to-day contact and the broader helpdesk as overflow and after-hours cover.
A placement isn't right for every business. Here's where clients get the most value from it.
Parental leave, long-service leave, extended sick leave: when your IT person is out for weeks or months, the business can't stop. We step in so your staff get the same support they're used to, and your IT person comes back to a system they still recognise.
IT roles take time to fill properly, three months is typical, and that's before someone settles in. Rather than rushing a hire or leaving the team without cover, a placement buys you the time to recruit well. We hand over cleanly when the right person starts.
Not every business needs a full-time IT employee, but they do need someone who's there. A long-term placement gives you a familiar face your staff can approach, at a fraction of the cost and obligation of a direct hire. No super, no leave accrual, no performance reviews.
Getting a placement in place shouldn't be complicated. Here's what the process looks like from first conversation to first day.
A short discovery call to understand your environment, the timing, and what the role needs to cover. We'll be honest if a placement isn't the right fit, and clear about what is.
We select an engineer whose skills and experience fit your environment. For planned starts, we'll arrange a meet-the-team before day one so they're not walking in cold.
Your placed engineer reports to you day-to-day, but InterIntra stays in the background, with regular check-ins, escalation support, and continuity cover if they're ever unavailable. You're never on your own.
IT staffing and project delivery at scale, examples where embedded expertise met tight deadlines and high stakes.
Full HQ relocation and enterprise IT rollout. 50+ staff operational Monday morning after a single weekend deployment.

Read the case studyOur minimum placement is four weeks. This gives the engineer enough time to understand your environment and actually be useful, rather than a quick visit that leaves your team no better off. For urgent short-notice situations, talk to us and we'll find the best path forward.
For planned absences, such as upcoming parental leave or a known staff departure, we typically have someone ready within two weeks of agreeing the engagement. For urgent cover needs, talk to us; we'll do everything we can to move quickly.
They're a direct InterIntra employee, not a contractor sourced through a staffing agency. That means they're backed by our full practice in security, infrastructure and cloud. If something complex comes up, the right specialist is a phone call away. You get one person on-site with an entire team behind them.
Because your placed engineer is part of the InterIntra team, we cover absences. You won't be left without support. We arrange cover from within our team, and because we maintain documentation of your environment, any cover engineer can step in without a handover from scratch.
It depends on the engagement structure and the individual. Talk to us if that's something you're considering, we can discuss what that transition looks like and work through it together.
Tell us your situation. 30 minutes is all it takes to understand whether a placement is the right fit and what it would look like for your business.
