Job Description

Ready to move past have you tried turning it off and on again?

If you ve done a solid year (or more) on an IT helpdesk and you re starting to feel boxed in rushed calls, endless handovers, no time to actually fix things this might be the step up you ve been waiting for.

This is a 1st Line Support role inside a large, well-established enterprise where you re trusted to own incidents, not just log them, and also you get time to think, troubleshoot, and learn.

You ll be part of a friendly, collaborative IT team based onsite in Hinckley, supporting users across the UK. The environment is busy but supportive, and you ll be exposed to real systems, real projects, and real responsibility.
You ll be the first point of contact for internal users.

You ll:
  • Log, prioritise, and troubleshoot a wide range of issues
  • Support technologies across Azure Cloud, CISCO networking, telephony, M365, and much more
  • Take more ownership of the calls you pick up, seeing issues through, not passing them off
  • Escalate intelligently to 2nd and 3rd line when needed, working closely with senior engineers
  • Deliver a genuinely high standard of service, aligned to SLAs
You ll also get exposure to group wide IT projects and access to multiple training courses to keep developing.

What you ll need:

You don t need to know everything but you do need the basics nailed:
  • 12+ months experience in a busy IT Helpdesk / 1st Line Support role
  • Confident communication and strong customer service skills
  • Experience with Windows 10/11, Microsoft 365, Active Directory, MS Office
  • A basic understanding of TCP/IP and networking
  • ITIL awareness
The setup:

It s an onsite role at the Hinckley Leicestershire offices, and operates on a shift basis with some weekend work (One weekend in six, worked remotely, plus two days off in the week).

Why join?

This is a role for someone who wants to grow, not stagnate.
You ll be joining an organisation that invests heavily in training, promotes from within when there s an opportunity and gives junior support staff the space to develop into real technologists
