What Will You Be Doing?

• You will be responsible for providing diagnosis, resolution and functional escalation of incidents and requests.
• It’s key that you process and manage incidents and requests within our agreed Service Levels (SLA’s) or escalate appropriately in accordance with the defined procedures.
• You will work closely with the 2nd and 3rd line IT Support Teams to provide excellent customer service to the wider business community.
• Making sure that all incidents/calls are logged accurately to help with the creation and analysis of management information within the team and the wider IT department. Identifying common issues and trends for the Service Management team to investigate further.

What Do We Need From You?

• If you've got experience of working towards SLA's along with any previous experience working within an IT Services / IT Support Helpdesk team that would be ideal.
• If you have an excellent phone manner and are keen to progress within a vibrant Technology team then this could be a great role for you.
• We put focus on personal development and the Service Desk can act as a springboard into other technical teams within the business
