Position Overview
This is an opportunity to be part of a highly collaborative, globally connected ISG Service Desk team that values initiative, practical problem-solving, and making work better for everyone. Based in Stamford, you’ll provide hands-on support for 30 local office users, direct assistance to 500 employees across the US, and overflow support for 1,000 colleagues worldwide.

The role involves close collaboration with other IT teams, especially Infrastructure, so a strong grasp of core infrastructure services and a problem-solving mindset are essential. Above all, we’re looking for someone who’s passionate about delivering outstanding user experiences and eager to help people work smarter every day.
