Join Our Enterprise Support Team
We are seeking a proactive, customer-focused Service Desk Engineer to join our Enterprise Service Desk at Schuh’s Livingston Head Office. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a modern, fast-paced technical support team that underpins the technology used across our stores, remote teams, and head office.
About the Role
As a Service Desk Analyst, this role will act as an internal subject matter expert and escalation point for our third-party Service Desk and network support teams. Day-to-day Service Desk support, including standard incident handling and request fulfillment, is managed by our third-party support partner. This role will focus on supporting escalations, providing business context, coordinating investigations, and helping to drive service improvements across the support model.
Key Responsibilities
Enterprise Service Desk Operations
- Act as an escalation point for the third-party Service Desk team where incidents or requests require internal input, business context, prioritization, or coordination with specialist teams.
- Support complex or high-impact issues that have been escalated from the third-party support partner, ensuring clear ownership, communication, and progress tracking.
- Work with the third-party support partner and internal technical teams to ensure escalated issues are investigated, progressed, and resolved in line with business priorities.
Hardware Support
- Troubleshoot, maintain, deploy, and upgrade IT hardware including laptops, desktops, mobile devices, peripherals, and meeting-room equipment.
- Manage hardware lifecycle tasks: asset tagging, tracking, and inventory maintenance.
Software & Applications
- Install, configure, and support a range of software across Windows, macOS, and mobile platforms.
- Support cloud and SaaS applications including Microsoft 365, Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, and business-specific tools.
Networking & Connectivity
- Act as the internal escalation point for complex network-related incidents where additional business context, prioritization, or coordination is required.
- Support VPN, Zero Trust, and remote access technologies.
- Work closely with the third-party network support partner to review escalations, coordinate investigations, track progress, and ensure clear communication between the supplier, Service Desk, and wider business.
