We are looking for a proactive and customer-focused IT Service Desk Analyst to join our growing remote support team. In this role, you’ll be the first point of contact for technical support queries, providing fast and effective resolutions to ensure our users stay connected and productive.

This is a hybrid position with predominantly remote working, but applicants must be based in the UK and eligible to work without sponsorship. Our base of operations is in Portsmouth, and applicants must be able to attend at our Portsmouth office as and when required (but no more that once per month).

While experience working in an IT service desk role is ideal, we are also keen to hear from applicants who are highly committed, tech-savvy, and quick to learn. This role is at a junior level, so would also suit a applicant looking to make a start in an IT service desk role.

About us:

We are a small, family-owned software development company based in Portsmouth, UK.

Requirements:
