You’ll contribute towards the success of a firm who have already improved the lives of millions around the globe already and it’s a great time to join, too, as they’re in the middle of a wider recruitment drive and significant internal investment in their products and staff.

You’ll take the reins as you tackle tickets within a team of 1st to 3rd Line Technical Support staff, contribute towards the smooth running of the team and its ongoing improvement, and be a key hands-on figure and/or leader across support/network issue resolution/software upgrades/migrations and other relevant areas predominantly for their French-speaking clientele.

In return, you’ll join a supportive organisation well versed in keeping their staff happy, and enjoy a generous bonus scheme, flexible hybrid working, plenty of opportunities to upskill, and a range of other benefits designed with employee happiness in mind.

An outline of some of the duties involved:

• Play a key role in the Tech Support team as you tackle tickets from internal and external users
• Get hands-on across all areas of 2nd and/or 3rd line technical support (depending on your level/background/work so far), covering inbound calls to data migrations, Windows and advanced networking issues resolution, database repairs, VM installations, software upgrades, etc.
• If applicable, take the reins as a supportive IT Manager mentoring less senior team members while remaining technically hands-on to help with incoming requests
• Contribute towards the ongoing improvement of the team, its procedures/processes, the tech they use, etc.
• Keep up to date with the latest trends, and bring those ideas into the team

The skills/knowledge they’re looking for:

• Fluency in French is a must
• Background as a 2nd and/or 3rd Line Support specialist / IT Support Engineer / Service Desk personnel / IT Manager / similar
• Good knowledge of networking and related areas, PC Hardware and Config and Windows (any Linux would be great but not a necessity)
• Ability to liaise with technical staff at any level from different domains and specialisms

This is a great opportunity for a French-speaking IT Support Analyst, Service Desk Admin, IT Manager or similar professional looking to join and lead a friendly and dedicated team, get stuck into a great hybrid style role and make it their own, and benefit from ongoing chances to progress and thrive.
