About Kepler
Kepler executes engineered marketing, where every message and ad delivered helps create a more personalized and productive relationship between brands and their consumers. We do this by acting as clients’ agency of record, as their in-house team, or some hybrid of the two – and by harnessing data and technology across all paid digital media and data-driven CRM channels.
We're transparent with our employees. You'll hear updates on company financials, how we're performing against bonus goals, and how we're responding to challenges we face.
We're growing. For you, that means unparalleled growth opportunities and a role in shaping the direction of the company.
We're fun. You'll work with and learn from the smartest people in the industry and have a blast doing it.
Overview
The IT team is responsible for supporting our users across all company locations, covering the Americas, Europe, and Asia. We provide level 1, 2, and 3 support for applications, operating systems, and hardware. We also support in-office A/V and networking equipment, administer business platforms, automate key processes, and maintain a watertight security posture.
We pride ourselves on offering a fast, effective, and friendly service to our users where IT is seen as a facilitator of higher productivity. We're continuously searching for new technologies and practices to improve the user experience.
We are currently looking for an IT Service Desk Technician Level 1 to join the team and become an integral part of our business unit of passionate and thought-leading IT experts. Please include a cover letter stating why you are interested in working at Kepler and why you think you are the right fit for the role.
Role Overview
We are currently looking for an IT Service Desk Technician to join our IT team in London and handle mostly L1/L2 support requests across our group of companies (based in London, Paris, US, Costa Rica, UK, and Singapore). This role is 3-4 days per week on-site at our London offices, with two days every 2 months in our Paris offices and the remaining time working from home.
As well as providing support to our userbase, the candidate will manage laptop inventory in London and Paris, as well as ensuring desk equipment is functional and tidy. In addition, the candidate will proactively search for opportunities to improve the support experience for users and drive efficiencies in the company’s IT processes. Candidates should come prepared to talk through real examples of achieving measurable improvements in previous roles.
