Here at Pets at Home, we’re looking for an IT Support Analyst to be responsible for analysing and resolving colleague IT issues, and identifying technical solutions for colleagues, at our Stafford Fulfilment Centre.

About the Role:

This role combines a number of different aspects of IT support; providing 1st line advice and guidance for technical issues, delivering hardware, software and account provisioning requests for colleagues and also providing onsite IT support for all colleagues at our Stafford Fulfilment Centre across both the operation and Support Office.

Our site operates 24/7 and so the role will be worked on a shift rota basis, delivered over days and nights, which attracts an additional shift premium in addition to the base salary.

  • Identifying and routing incidents to the appropriate 2nd line support teams and external suppliers to ensure a timely resolution
  • Delivery of onsite support service 24/7
  • Defining, implementing and continually reviewing the IT Incident processes to ensure that these are fit for purpose and meeting the needs of the businesses we support
  • Liaising with suppliers/support teams, where IT Incidents cannot be fulfilled at 1st point of contact, to ensure processes are lean, information exchange to progress incident resolution is fit for purpose and service levels are being proactively managed
  • Working alongside the Request Analysts to ensure hardware stock is continually maintained in line with Service Request forecasting
  • Setting up hardware and software to meet Colleague requirements through the fulfilment of Service Requests
  • Working closely with End User Computing to ensure products deployed are strategically aligned and licences are released/reused where possible

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
