The Role
As a 1st Line IT Support Technician, you will act as the first point of contact for IT support requests, assisting internal users and ensuring technical issues are resolved efficiently.
Working within a collaborative support team, you will handle incoming support tickets, troubleshoot technical problems, prepare equipment for new employees, and escalate more complex issues to second or third line engineers when necessary.
The team supports users across several UK and Ireland locations, providing both remote and on-site assistance where required.
