As our IT Support Team Lead you'll be at the forefront of providing a seamless experience for all staff in the EU & APAC region. The IT Operations team is responsible for delivering all the technologies required for GWI staff to deliver our products to clients.
* Leading comprehensive hardware and software management, from procurement to support, always with an eye towards efficiency.

What do I need to bring with me?
You’ll need to be able to demonstrate the core skills this role requires. You don't have to tick all the boxes right away; the important thing is that you’re willing to learn. Here’s what the team will be looking for in you:

Equally important is attitude. We want people who think big (to make an impact), ask why (to find a better way), and show respect (to everyone, at every level, all the time). Those are our values, and they’re a big part of what we’re looking for in you.
What’s in it for me?
At GWI, you’ll find meaningful work, visible impact, and a culture that empowers you to do your best. Our package includes:
* 25 days’ annual leave and office closures over the holidays.
