You will play a key role in providing a comprehensive Tech Support service to JLA employees. You will provide IT support on a number of matters and ensure these are logged, monitored and resolved in an efficient and effective manner. A willingness to learn and develop is essential to understand and support business technologies.
Whilst a strong interest in technology paired with the ability to grasp technical concepts quickly and easily is important, our emphasis will be more on your personality, drive, communication skills and professionalism. You will need to balance many demands, so being able to multi-task in a fun but intensive environment is a critical skill. You will need to be comfortable working independently and as part of a team. A positive, can-do attitude, coolness under pressure and the ability to handle a wide variety of client issues are essential.
