What are we looking for?

Ideally, you’ll have around one year’s commercial experience in an IT service desk, help desk, or 1st line support role.

We’re not expecting you to know everything. What’s important is that you have a good technical foundation, enjoy solving problems, and are keen to keep learning.

You will ideally have:

• Around one year’s commercial IT support experience
• Experience working in a service desk or help desk environment
• Good knowledge of Windows and Microsoft 365
