About the Job
As Service Desk Engineer you will act as the first point of contact for Corporate & Mid-market customers contacted Zen to report issues and faults relating to their service.

Throughout this process you will remain the single point of contact with the customer, maintaining ownership of the original fault and acting as the main point of contact between the customer and Zen but providing timely updates and ensuring the fault is given the correct level of priority and attention.
