In this role, you will:
- Serve as the first point of contact for managing all ICT incidents and requests logged through the helpdesk while working with third-party providers, Infrastructure, and Business Systems teams to ensure issues are resolved within agreed service levels. You will log, prioritise, and update support tickets, communicate service impacts, and support the delivery and maintenance of ICT hardware, software, mobile devices, and user accounts.

In addition, you will create user guidance materials, develop self-service knowledge resources, and help colleagues across the business make effective use of technology and business systems.
