Senior IT Customer Support Analyst, Desktop Support

KBR is seeking a Senior Desktop Support Team Lead to provide advanced technical support and technical leadership across enterprise desktop services throughout the United Kingdom and supported regional locations. Acting as a senior escalation point, this role is responsible for resolving complex end-user computing issues, supporting Microsoft-based technologies, and ensuring the delivery of high-quality support services aligned with established service objectives.

  • Diagnose and resolve local and network printing issues, including troubleshooting enterprise network printers, print servers, print queues, driver-related issues, and secure printing solutions.
