We are looking for a Service Desk role that inflates your salary with overtime, provides ongoing training as well as a progression plan for your career development? We are helping our client based in Cardiff to scale their technical team with 1st line support engineers who want to work within a collaborative team and can add value across multiple workstreams within the business.
About the company…
· The company offers and encourages training and progression, there have been frequent promotions within the current team, and they provide ongoing support to your career development.
· The technical teams keep the company at the forefront of technology and as the company scales in projects and size, they have an exciting IT department that are constantly thinking of new ways to improve their functions.
About you…
· You will be a generalist rather than specialising in one area; this role has a focus on end user support so you will be a great communicator with strong customer service skills.
· You have an inquisitive nature and want to constantly develop your skills.
· You believe the best way to really understand technical capabilities is to break things to build them back up, or you just like designing your own solutions.
About the role…

- Managing and updating the Service Desk knowledge base

- Organise consistent lines of communication to ensure issues are correctly identified.
- Pursue regular updates from problem owners and cascade information back to Service Desk staff
- Attend CAB meetings, assess change risk and ensure the Service Desk can continue to deliver consistent quality standards to customers.
The technology / experience that would be ideal includes:
