Offer description

The Role

We’re looking for a highly skilled Data Engineer who’ll help us build and operate large-scale data pipelines that can withstand our growth and ambitions. As a Junior Application Support Analyst, you’ll support day-to-day operations across systems such as CRM, Planning and Fulfilment, with some exposure to Broadcasting systems. You’ll work closely with senior analysts, product teams, and end users to help resolve issues, document solutions, and ensure systems run smoothly. If you enjoy problem‑solving, helping people, and working in a collaborative, fast‑paced environment, we’d love to hear from you.

* Support users with system queries and “how‑to” guidance.


Continuous Improvement & Collaboration (20%)

* Help reduce ticket volumes by contributing to FAQs, user tips, and training materials.
* Support system upgrades, testing, and feature releases.

* Ensure all activities are logged correctly in tools such as Jira, ServiceNow, or Service Cloud.
* Support monitoring of background services (with guidance from senior team members).

* Provide clear and friendly support to system users.
* Follow established procedures to identify causes of issues and apply appropriate fixes.


What You’ll Love About This Role

* Think Big: Learn how large-scale commercial systems operate in a leading media organisation.
* Own It: Take responsibility for resolving issues and supporting users from start to finish (with guidance).
* Keep it Simple: Help translate technical issues into clear, understandable language.
* Better Together: Collaborate with teams across the business and build strong working relationships.

In your first few months, you will have:

* Built strong relationships with colleagues and system users.

Skills & Behaviours

* Willingness to learn and develop technical knowledge.
* Ability to follow documented procedures and troubleshoot methodically.
* Good organisational skills and ability to prioritise tasks with support from senior team members.
* Team player mindset and eagerness to collaborate.


Technical Knowledge (Desirable, Not Essential)

* Awareness of APIs or testing tools such as Postman.
* Familiarity with ITIL concepts (Incident, Change, Problem Management).
* Experience creating clear bug tickets with steps to reproduce.
* Interest in media or advertising industries (nice to have).
