Are you a tech-savvy problem solver with a passion for helping others? If so, we want you to be the friendly face of our IT department! As the first point of contact for technical assistance in a predominantly remote environment, you’ll play a crucial role in keeping our team connected and productive.

The role involves providing high-quality customer support through our ticketing system, email, or chat for end-users experiencing IT issues.

  • Incident Management and Documentation: Excel in ticket documentation and resolution, ensuring every ticket is handled with care. Contribute to our knowledge base, creating helpful articles and guidelines for both IT staff and end-users.
  • Escalation: Communicate complex issues to senior staff while maintaining ownership of the ticket until resolution.
  • Basic Troubleshooting: Diagnose and resolve hardware and software issues like a pro, ensuring quick and efficient solutions.
  • Software and Mobile Device Support: Install, configure, and troubleshoot common software applications to keep everyone running smoothly. Assist employees with work-related mobile phone issues, including BYOD device enrollment in our Mobile Device Management (MDM) system.
  • Hardware Setup & Deployment: Help configure and deploy IT hardware, ensuring everything is set up and functioning perfectly.
  • Collaboration and Customer Service: Work closely with other teams, vendors, and support partners to facilitate problem resolution and meet service-level requirements. Provide empathetic, patient, and efficient support, ensuring a high level of customer satisfaction with every interaction.

  • What you'll need to be successful as a Service Desk Specialist:
  • An Associate degree or technical certificate in IT, or equivalent experience.
  • 1-3 years in a Helpdesk or Desktop Support role.
  • Familiarity with Windows 10/11, macOS, mobile devices, printers, and basic network troubleshooting.
  • Proficiency with software deployment and remote troubleshooting tools.
  • Strong technical knowledge of hardware and software troubleshooting.
