* Troubleshooting hardware, software, and connectivity issues for staff and students
* Assisting with rolling out upgrades, updates, and new technologies
* Supporting school events and ensuring minimal downtime across all IT systems
* Liaising with external suppliers and IT partners when needed
What we’re looking for:
* Experience in a school or education setting is highly desirable
* Hands-on knowledge of Google Workspace and Microsoft 365
* Understanding of Windows Server, AD, Intune, SCCM, and basic networking (Cisco/Meraki)
* A clear communicator with a can-do attitude and problem-solving mindset
* Someone keen to learn, grow, and potentially step into a full Network Manager role in the future
* CompTIA A+ / Network+
* Microsoft or Google certifications
* ITIL Foundation
* Degree or diploma in IT (or working towards one)
This is a great chance to work in a values-led, people-first environment where you’ll be supported and encouraged to develop professionally. Whether you’re an experienced IT Technician or 1st/2nd Line Support Analyst ready for a new challenge, we’d love to hear from you.
