We work a weekly alternating shift system: 08:00 – 16:30 and 10:30 – 19:00 with one Saturday morning per month on call.

Our new team member will:
· Provide customer service focused technical support covering, for example, user account creation, user device and equipment setup and support, and application support.
· Maintain tickets, logs and other records relating to customer service.
· Work according to ticket priorities and urgency.

To succeed in this role, you will:

· Care about people, both your colleagues and our customers.
· Be driven to learn new things and excited about technology and its role in people’s lives.
· Understand that attention to detail underpins everything in technology.
· Have a desire to solve problems by joining the dots and uncovering patterns.
· Have the courage to leave your comfort zone and the sensitivity to know when you must turn to a manager for advice.
· Be scrupulously honest and have read and understood the BCS code of ethics.
In return we will:
· Always treat you with respect.
· Encourage and support you in your learning journey by providing internal training and putting you on a Microsoft technologies certification track.
· Pay you at least in line with industry rates.
· Help you find and develop your strengths in technology, customer service, documentation, record keeping and your own unique skills (we’d love you to surprise us).
· Encourage you to provide input into the overall direction of the company.
Our aim is to build a top performance team. Our help desk is not like others in our industry; we are aiming for perfection. We will provide everything you need to perform at the top of your game. At the same time, we have no tolerance for anything less than 100% commitment to our team goals.
We will only consider applicants who send a cover letter with their application.
