Every day, our team works to remove child sexual abuse images and videos from the internet. It's serious, vital work - and it can't happen without the right technology behind it. That's where you come in.
We're looking for an IT Technician to join our small, dedicated team. You'll be our first point of contact for all IWF infrastructure, keeping things running smoothly day to day and providing responsive support to colleagues in the office and those working remotely.
You'll help us uphold our IT processes in line with our Cyber Essentials Plus programme, playing an important part in passing our annual accreditation audit, and you'll keep accurate, up-to-date documentation of all our IT and information security systems.
