Are you passionate about technology and enjoy helping people?
We're looking for an enthusiastic IT Support Engineer to join our friendly Service Desk team based at our head office in Cambridge, where you'll be the go-to person for resolving IT issues and keeping our colleagues connected and productive.
In this people-facing role, your excellent customer service skills will shine as you provide responsive and professional 1st and 2nd line support across the business.
This is a hands-on, varied position that blends user support with hardware and software management, system administration, and involvement in exciting project work. You'll have the chance to broaden your technical expertise, work with a wide range of technologies, and make a real impact on how IT services are delivered.

* Installing, configuring and maintaining laptops, mobile devices, printers, AV/telephony equipment and business applications.
* Managing onboarding and offboarding processes, ensuring smooth setup and security compliance.
* Monitoring IT systems and alerts, taking proactive action to keep everything running smoothly.
* Keeping accurate records in ServiceNow, including incidents, assets and knowledge base updates.
* Assisting with hardware and software procurement, ensuring stock levels meet demand.
* Getting involved in IT projects and upgrades, contributing to improvements and new initiatives.
About You:
Essential
* Strong experience supporting Windows environments.
* In-depth knowledge of Microsoft cloud services: Office 365, Teams, SharePoint, Power Platform.
* Hands-on experience resolving hardware issues (PCs, laptops, printers, mobiles) and software issues (off-the-shelf and bespoke).
* Excellent customer service and communication skills, with the ability to manage expectations diplomatically.
* Experience using an IT service management tool (e.g. ServiceNow).
* Ability to prioritise workload, solve problems effectively and work flexibly as part of a team.
* Full UK driving licence and own transport for occasional office visits.
Desired
* Experience working in a professional services or multi-site environment.
* ITIL Foundation certification or familiarity with ITIL practices.
* Relevant technical certifications (CompTIA A+, Microsoft Certified, etc.).
* Experience liaising with 3rd party suppliers or support organisations.
