  • Monitoring the performance and availability of key workplace technologies
  • Assisting with software updates, system changes and technology releases
  • Maintaining accurate IT records, documentation and asset information
  • Working alongside infrastructure and technology partners on more complex technical matters
  • Helping coordinate technology changes across the business and ensuring users are appropriately supported
  • Identifying recurring issues and recommending improvements to reduce future support requirements
  • Contributing to the development of IT processes, procedures and internal knowledge resources
  • Assisting with technology projects, system enhancements and business initiatives as required
  • Supporting the organisation as it adopts new digital tools and more efficient ways of working
  • Building trusted relationships with employees and becoming a reliable point of contact for technology-related matters

  • Experience managing user access, permissions and technology services
  • The ability to investigate problems logically and work through issues to a resolution
  • Strong interpersonal skills and confidence working with people across different areas of a business
  • A customer-first approach with a focus on understanding the underlying issue rather than simply resolving the immediate request
  • The ability to prioritise workloads and remain organised in a fast-paced environment
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • A high level of initiative and the confidence to work with minimal supervision
  • A continuous improvement mindset and an interest in finding better ways of delivering IT services
