Temporary IT Support Technician
Are you an experienced IT Support Technician looking for a part-time temporary opportunity in the Pickering area?
We are working with an established organisation that is looking for a friendly, proactive and hands-on IT Support Technician to join its small IT team for approximately 8 weeks.

You will be the first point of contact for everyday IT queries, escalating more complex issues to the IT Manager when required.
This is a varied role where your ability to communicate with people will be just as important as your technical knowledge. You could be setting up a laptop one minute and helping someone resolve a Microsoft 365, password, printing or Wi-Fi issue the next.

- Providing patient, practical support and basic guidance to users with differing levels of technical confidence
- Supporting users both in person and remotely where required

- Experience supporting Windows 11 and setting up laptops or desktop equipment
- Knowledge of Microsoft 365, including Outlook and Teams
- Experience supporting user accounts, passwords and two-factor authentication

- A practical, hands-on approach to problem solving
- Excellent customer service and communication skills
- The patience and ability to explain technical issues clearly to non-technical users
- A reliable and organised approach, with the ability to prioritise your workload
