🚀 Ready for your next challenge?

If you’re the kind of person who loves getting stuck into hands-on tech, thrives on variety, and enjoys making life easier for others, this one’s for you.

We’re on the hunt for a Desktop Support Engineer to join a friendly, fast-moving team supporting schools with all things IT. You’ll be right at the heart of the action – whether it’s resolving a tricky support ticket, rolling out a new batch of laptops, or helping a teacher get their tech back on track before class starts.

This is a practical, people-focused role with lots of autonomy, tons of variety, and real opportunities to grow.

🛠 What you’ll be doing

Your week might include:

• Providing 1st and 2nd line desktop support on-site across multiple school locations
• Troubleshooting Windows, Chromebooks, printers, and classroom tech
• Supporting users face-to-face with calm, confident communication
• Managing support tickets and collaborating with the helpdesk team
• Liaising with third-party suppliers when escalation is needed
• Auditing school IT environments and recommending improvements

No two days will be the same – and that’s exactly how you like it.

🙌 What we’re looking for

You’ll need to be confident, reliable and able to think on your feet. We’re after someone who’s:

• Experienced in on-site IT support (ideally 3+ years)
• Skilled with Microsoft desktop and server tech (Windows 11, Microsoft 365, etc.)
• Familiar with virtualisation tools like Hyper-V
• A great communicator with a calm, proactive approach
• Organised and comfortable working solo or as part of a team

Bonus if you’ve worked in an education setting before – but it’s not essential.

💡 Even better if you bring...

You don’t need all of this, but these are the kinds of extras that’ll help you hit the ground running:

• Group Policy and MDM experience
• Knowledge of backup solutions, Azure, and virtualisation tools
• Networking skills – VLANs, Wi-Fi, switches, firewalls etc.
• Familiarity with Autotask, Datto, or similar platforms

And if you’ve got a natural curiosity for emerging tech, even better.

🎯 Why this role?

You’ll be supported by a solid, collaborative team – but you’ll also have the freedom to manage your time, make decisions, and take real ownership of your work. It’s a brilliant opportunity to:

• Develop your technical skills across a broad stack
• Get hands-on experience with a range of systems and environments
• Work somewhere that values your input and initiative
• Access ongoing training and career progression

You’ll be making a real difference every day – not just keeping systems running, but helping people do their best work through better tech.

If you’re motivated, switched-on, and ready to take your next step in IT – we’d love to hear from you.
