  • Set up and configure laptops, desktops, peripherals, and mobile devices.
  • Support employee onboarding and offboarding, including device preparation and account-related tasks.
  • Prioritise tickets according to business impact, urgency, and agreed service levels.
  • Escalate unresolved incidents to 2nd Level Support or specialist teams, providing relevant diagnostic information.
  • Keep users informed about the status and progress of their requests.
  • Maintain accurate ticket records and contribute to knowledge base articles and support documentation.
  • Follow IT security policies and escalate suspected security incidents promptly.

  • Clear written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain technical topics to non-technical users.
  • A customer-focused mindset, patience, and a professional approach.
  • The ability to prioritise tasks, maintain accurate documentation, and collaborate effectively.
  • Proficiency in English; additional languages are an advantage.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
