Working under the direction of the ICT Operations Manager, you will assist with routine system checks, account administration, security updates, equipment records and the implementation of approved upgrades and new services.

About You

You will bring experience of providing customer‑focused IT support, together with a practical understanding of computer hardware, operating systems, networks and common applications. You will be comfortable diagnosing and resolving technical issues, supporting a range of devices and explaining solutions clearly to people who may not have a technical background.

A relevant IT qualification, apprenticeship or equivalent practical experience is required, with Apple or iOS technology, Microsoft 365, service desk systems or cloud‑based services would be an advantage.
