You’ll work closely with TechOps, Security, Architecture, and wider teams to modernise workplace tools and uplift how the organisation manages and supports devices.
It’s a hands-on role with plenty of room to bring new ideas, grow into a subject matter expert, and contribute to continuous improvement.

What you’ll be doing:
  • Troubleshooting and resolving end-user issues across devices, applications, operating systems, and connectivity.
  • Supporting laptops, mobiles, tablets, meeting room tech, and other workplace tools.
  • Packaging and deploying applications and contributing to upgrades, migrations, and project work.
  • Monitoring performance, identifying problems early, and putting fixes and automation in place to prevent recurring issues.
  • Managing incidents, requests, asset records, and changes within ITSM tools.
  • Maintaining and improving Windows and Mac SOE builds.
  • Handling OS and application patching, vulnerability remediation, and security controls.
  • Managing onboarding/offboarding, user access, MFA, SSO, and role-based permissions.
  • Working with vendors on hardware/software procurement and evaluating new technologies.
  • Creating user guides and knowledge articles to support self-service.
  • Contributing to team capability by mentoring others and staying current with modern workplace trends.

What you’ll bring:
  • Experience in a Desktop Support, Service Desk, or Modern Workplace/End-User Computing role.
  • Strong knowledge of Windows 10/11, MacOS, and ChromeOS/Google Workspace tools, along with mobile OS (iOS/Android).
  • Experience with MDM or device management tools (Endpoint Central, Intune, SCCM, Apple Business Manager, etc.).
  • Good understanding of security controls like MFA, Conditional Access, and DLP.
  • Experience with cloud identity providers such as Entra ID or Google Identity, including SSO.
  • Solid troubleshooting skills across devices, applications, networks, and security tools.
  • Familiarity with ITSM processes (incident, change, asset) and tools like ServiceNow, Jira Service Management, or ServiceDesk Plus.
  • Experience with EDR tools such as Microsoft Defender or CrowdStrike.
Bonus points for:
  • Experience with Google Workspace.
  • Knowledge of GPO or OS hardening practices.
  • Scripting skills (PowerShell or similar) or experience automating workflows.
  • Exposure to observability tools such as Splunk, Datadog, Elastic, or Site24x7.

Who you are:
You enjoy solving problems, improving systems, and helping people get the best out of their tools. You take ownership, communicate clearly, and keep a cool head when things get busy. You work well across teams and bring a practical, user-focused approach to your work.
