The Service Desk
The Service Desk sits at the centre of day-to-day operations, restoring service quickly and consistently. The team focuses on delivering a strong user experience through excellent customer support, disciplined processes and accurate ticketing. We continue to invest in modern technology, including ServiceNow, automation and AI-enabled support, to drive continuous improvement.
As a Service Desk Analyst

This is an entry-level Service Desk role, ideal for someone with proven IT support experience who is ready to build their skills further.

With coaching and exposure to wider IT operations, you will develop your technical capability and professionalism, with clear opportunities to progress into more senior Service Desk or IT Operations roles.

- Deliver a professional support experience across walk-ups, email and ServiceNow, ensuring work is prioritised correctly and users are kept informed.
- Log, categorise and manage all incidents and requests accurately in ServiceNow, with clear symptoms, actions and outcomes recorded.
- Diagnose and resolve end-user computing incidents while meeting agreed SLAs and contributing to improved First Contact Resolution.
- Provide Tier 2 or Tier 3 teams with clear diagnostics, evidence and user impact for escalated issues, maintaining ownership through to resolution and closure.
- Raise problem records for recurring issues and support investigations by providing accurate timelines, logs and impact details.
- Create and maintain knowledge articles in line with agreed standards, helping to reduce repeat contacts and support self-service and automation.
- Make use of automation and AI-enabled support tools to streamline common tasks and suggest improvements to scripts, workflows and knowledge content.
- Maintain an organised IT stock area, following asset handling processes, coordinating third-party support where required, and providing operational support to the wider IT function.
- Support Microsoft 365 deployments and licensing, mobile device enrolment, endpoint health checks, printer and scanning device support, and assist with service improvement activities and small project tasks.
