ABOUT YOU 👇

You’re an experienced IT support professional who enjoys solving problems and supporting customers in a fast‑paced service environment. You’ve previously worked as a Product Support Engineer, Desktop Support Engineer, IT Help Desk Technician, or in a similar 2nd Line role, and you’re confident handling more complex technical issues while acting as a point of escalation for 1st Line support.

You have a solid understanding of IP‑based systems, networking and configuration, and you’re comfortable diagnosing issues remotely, guiding users through fixes, and documenting solutions clearly. You approach troubleshooting in a logical, structured way and enjoy getting to the root cause of technical problems.

Customer service comes naturally to you. You communicate clearly, remain patient and empathetic, and can confidently support non‑technical users while maintaining professionalism at all times. You’re organised, adaptable, and able to manage multiple priorities while working to agreed SLAs. You’re also keen to learn, keep up to date with new technologies, and share knowledge with colleagues to support team development.


THE ROLE 👨💻

As a 2nd Line Operational Support Technician, you’ll be a key member of our evolving Service Desk team, providing telephone, remote and online support to our customers. You’ll manage and resolve technical incidents using our case management system, triaging issues, diagnosing root causes, and ensuring all interactions are accurately documented.

You’ll act as a point of escalation for 1st Line Support Technicians, supporting them with complex issues and mentoring where required. Taking ownership of incidents, you’ll see problems through to resolution, keeping customers informed of progress, planned maintenance, and any service‑impacting changes along the way.

The role involves managing your own workload against priority schedules and ensuring tickets remain within SLA targets. You’ll proactively review alerts from monitoring systems, identify potential issues, and raise concerns where necessary. You’ll also work closely with internal teams, supporting testing across the EVO platform and Appello’s wider product portfolio.

From time to time, you’ll assist the Service Desk Team Leader with operational support activities, including workload management, escalations, and quality checks — playing an important role in maintaining high service standards across the team.
