The Role
We are looking for an enthusiastic and customer-focused individual with a strong interest in technology and delivering excellent service. This is an ideal opportunity for someone looking to develop their career in ICT within a supportive school environment.
As an ICT First Line Technician at Wimbledon High School, you will be a key member of the ICT team, providing first-line support to staff and students. Working under the direction of senior ICT colleagues, you will help resolve day-to-day technical issues, ensure support requests are handled efficiently, and contribute to the smooth running of the school's technology services.
You will manage helpdesk tickets, diagnose and resolve routine technical faults, install and configure hardware and software, support Windows and Apple devices, and assist with maintenance, upgrades and equipment repairs. You will also support printers, network-connected devices, and audio-visual equipment for assemblies, events, and visiting speakers. More complex issues will be referred to senior members of the ICT team, who will provide guidance and support as required.
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.
