OVERVIEW OF THE JOB
We are looking for a 1st/2nd line support person to work as part of a two person team at out site at CATS Cambridge. Working full time on site, they will be expected to support the school, our head office in Cambridge and the wider community, for example our sales teams in China and Hong Kong. This is a typical IT support role where customer service skills are a key part of the role. We’re looking for someone who cares about their work and who wants to make a difference within a teaching environment. While we do use remote connection software to troubleshoot issues further afield we are looking for someone with a more personal, face to face approach to their IT support. This role would be ideal for someone already working in a 1st or 2nd line support environment who’s looking for a new challenge. This is a one year fixed term contract to cover a secondment within the team with the possibility of a permanent role in the future.
As part of the IT Services department, the primary objective of this role is to deliver a high-quality support service to the CATS Global Schools community. This is principally a customer facing role working within the local school as well as the wider community and Head Office (based in Cambridge). Therefore, excellent interpersonal skills and a focus on quality customer service are essential. Technicians will typically operate as part of the larger team and will be expected to operate independently for level 1 support calls and BAU activities within the support service. The expected working hours will be defined in the contract, however, for guidance it will be between 8am-5.30pm for example, 8am to 4.30pm or 9am 5.30pm.
