What you'll be doing:

Our Service Desk Analysts are part of a skilled team that work closely with our customers to ensure their ICT Infrastructure operates at the optimum capacity and with minimum disruption to service.

The majority of your time will be spent taking calls - you'll be responding to and logging new cases and Requests, ensuring our customers are regularly updated on where we're at with them.

The role is initially 100% office based (in our Hitchin office), with hybrid working available (3 days in, 2 days from home) after probation. The team work on a shift pattern - the earliest shift starts at 08:00, and the latest you would finish is 18:00 - there are no evenings, weekends or bank holidays.
