Helpdesk Support Manager

Thank you for taking your time to read about this Helpdesk Support Manager opportunity with TecSec Services based in Sheffield. Are you an experienced people manager within the IT Sector? Do you have experience providing remote and on-site IT support services for clients? Are you passionate about cyber security and understand the importance of making sure technology is secure? Do you have experience in a 2nd line support role using a ticketing system? Would you rather be part of a small organisation where everyone knows each other than a large company where you’re just a number on payroll? Would you like to be part of a growing company and develop in this role? Are you keen to develop your skills within a company where continuous professional development is the norm? If you’re reading the above and answering yes, yes, yes, this new role at TecSec could be the perfect opportunity for you! TecSec is a Sheffield based IT and Trusted Technology Partner supporting SMEs both locally and nationwide for over 25 years. Born from the partnership between Managing Director Morton Bell and Technical Director Phill McManus, TecSec are passionate about ensuring secure managed IT for all their clients. TecSec are currently in the process of relocating from St James House, Sheffield to Meadowcourt beside Meadowhall where this role will be based. With the new office close to Meadowhall there are fantastic public transport links including bus, tram and train or, there is plenty of parking close by. This role is a key part of TecSec’s daily operations, not only will you be the primary contact for 2nd and 3rd line support issues, but you will also lead the IT team and ensure the Helpdesk is running as smoothly as possible. But, what might a typical day look like as TecSec’s Helpdesk Support Manager? Getting to the office in the morning, saying hello to Morton and Phill. Then, catching up with the IT team (we currently have a team of five members, but with our growth plans, this number will expand further), making sure that everyone is okay and seeing if there is anything anyone would like some extra support with. As tickets come in you may have a 2nd or 3rd line incident that gets escalated to yourself to solve, or you might just be supporting the team and managing the live incidents to make sure customers are being responded to quickly. After lunch, you might have a quiet hour. Here, you might decide to take some time to work on a project or look at ways to help the team with their training and development. More service requests may come in, you might spend most of the afternoon allocating tickets to the team, making sure everyone has what they need, and being on hand to provide further support. You also need to set aside time each day to monitor client and staff reports and performance to ensure everything is managed, maintained, and reported correctly. Before you leave for the day, you might make sure some hardware is ready and packaged to be picked up by a courier first thing the next morning. In this dynamic role, every day is likely to be different but the one thing that will always stay the same is TecSec’s commitment to ensuring security and safety in everything they do. Every member of the IT team is a qualified Cyber Essentials Assessor, or on their way to becoming one. As well as being a strong team leader, TecSec are looking for the following key skills: Knowledge of Office 365 product suite & licenses including SharePoint, Teams, and EntraID security features (MFA, Intune, Conditional Access).
