Job Description

We invite applications from enthusiastic and flexible candidates to join our existing ICT support team as an Apprentice IT Technician. You will gain a level 3 qualification in ICT over a 12 - 18 month period.

The salary begins at £24,413 per annum (NJC grade 1 SCP 2) as an apprentice then increases to £27,254 (NJC Grade 5 SCP 9) when qualified.

The successful candidate will have a good knowledge of general hardware and software as well as being highly organised and having excellent communication skills, both written and verbal.
