1st Line Support Engineer
Ready to ditch the dead-end help-desk and jump into real tech action?
We usually respond within a day
If you’re ready to take the next step in your IT career and start solving real problems, instead of just logging tickets—our client wants to meet you.
They're on a mission to build a rock-solid first-line support team that keeps everyday tech running smoothly for a growing roster of clients and end-users.
What You’ll Do
You’ll be the friendly face and technical backbone for a wide variety of clients. One minute you’re unlocking accounts and pushing Windows updates, the next you’re coaxing a temperamental printer back to life, troubleshooting VPN quirks and walking someone through Teams setup. Every day brings new challenges—and the chance to learn from a team of industry veterans, who've pretty much seen it all when it comes to IT!
You’ll also pitch in on projects and be trusted with site visits, and tag-team with senior engineers so they can focus on bigger issues.
- Triage, diagnose and resolve support requests with a customer-first mindset
- Maintain client infrastructure and perform hands-on fixes
- Collaborate closely with 2nd/3rd line engineers on escalations
- Contribute to the knowledge base and suggest workflow improvements
- Bring your sense of humour and team spirit to every shift
What We’re Looking For
Think of this as joining your new work-fam—a dedicated team that show up on time, stay until the job’s done, and cracks jokes over coffee. If you geek out over DIY builds and live and breathe IT (even as a self-taught hobbyist), we want to hear from you.
We need someone who’s reliable, personable and shows up (on time!) ready to learn. You should be local or within easy commute of Stockport and tick some or all of these boxes:
- A strong communicator who fits into a close-knit, banter-friendly team
- Coachable: eager to learn new tech and ways of working
- Prior help-desk or hardware/networking/Microsoft 365 experience a bonus
- Long-term commitment—no fast-track job hoppers, please
