real analysis - Proof fraclog(n!)nlogn is increasing for positive integer n (logn=ln(n))

I would like to show that log(n!)nlogn increases as n increases, for positive integer n only (to ignore the use of gamma function). Note here logn=ln(n), so using base e. I would like to be able to show this so I can then apply the Monotone Convergence Theorem to show that (log(n!)(nlogn). My first idea was to try and show that the second derivative is always positive, but due to log(n!) not being continuous (without having to use gamma function which I feel is OTT for this question) this, of course, would not work. Does anyone have any ideas about how to prove that this sequence is increasing rigorously?
