Due to continued success, our client has an exciting opportunity for an experienced Service Desk Team Lead or Service Desk Manager to join their Service Delivery team. Founded in 2014, they have grown from strength-to-strength as a Managed Service Provider. They take pride in having an employee-centric environment and are strong believers in developing the skills, knowledge and resource of their small workforce.

As a Senior team member, you will be responsible for the delivery of exceptional levels of service and support to both their growing client-base and internal systems. You will be reporting directly to senior management and will have line management responsibility for the service desk team. The Service Desk Manager will ensure the support model aligns with the ITIL framework, provide data and reporting of KPIs whilst working with the team to create an effective resource model, ensuring SLA compliance whilst developing and supporting a customer-focused service support team.

When the situation demands, you will also need to assist with the duties of a 3rd-Line Service Desk Engineer, acting as an escalation point for 1st and 2nd-Line Service Desk Engineers, therefore, you will need to be more than technically competent.

Someone who is looking to make a real difference within a company which is open to new ideas and develop and grow, their own role, their team and ultimately department into something bigger and is looking to make an impact.

Although this will be a demanding full time role, we would consider for the right person a more flexible part-time pro rata position with aligned targets and goals.
