Customer Support Analyst Brighton, England
Job description
The University of Sussex is a leading academic institution nestled in the beautiful South Downs, on the outskirts of Brighton. With staff and students from over 100 countries, we are a diverse and innovative environment, and one of the highest performing universities in the world. We are also a major local employer, with a revenue of over £320m per year and over 3,000 employees.
Led by an award-winning Chief Digital Transformation Officer and inspirational leadership team, we are now embarking on an ambitious programme of transformational change. Over the coming years, this digital transition will be an ever-developing programme supported by senior stakeholders both financially and strategically. Put simply, whilst we are already a highly successful organisation and business, the University will be a very different world in years to come and achieve levels of performance and digital delivery as yet unseen in the sector. All of this is underpinned by major construction and estate renewal, an exciting programme of work to add thousands of accommodation spaces, and a network replacement project to install the latest digital infrastructure as part of the journey towards a fully data-enabled organisation.
We are moving to an agile world and need to take the organisation on the same journey; to be sector leading and to deliver a model of digital delivery fit for the coming years. As this programme gains momentum, we need more people to join us as we unpick our challenges and legacy systems and move towards meeting our potential.
As a member of our very busy and fast paced Customer Helpdesk Team, you will be responsible for delivering a high profile ‘Expert Helpdesk’ Service. You will be contributing to the Incident Management and Service Request fulfillment processes, first stage Problem Management process and may at times play a role in delivering support services directly to specific schools, divisions or projects.
Working as part of a team, where you will have the opportunity to learn from experienced colleagues further developing your own skillset whilst delivering outstanding service experiences that delight our customers and achieve a high rate of ‘first time fix’.
To be successful in this role you will have excellent customer service skills with the ability to remain calm and professional during times of challenge and a high workload. You will be experienced in providing both software and hardware technical support to a wide variety of users. Ideally you will also have experience in a wide range of productivity and collaboration software (e.g. Microsoft Office, G-Suite, Box, etc), support of mobile devices, and some practical knowledge of a wide variety of AV technologies.
