This role would suit someone currently working in a 2nd Line or 3rd Line, IT Support, IT Support Engineer or Service Desk Analyst position who enjoys problem-solving and wants to continue developing their technical knowledge within a busy Managed Service Provider (MSP) environment.

- Diagnosing and resolving connectivity, networking and infrastructure issues.
- Managing support tickets, prioritising workloads and ensuring issues are resolved within agreed timescales.
- Supporting customers remotely and providing clear, professional technical guidance.
- Escalating more complex technical issues to senior engineers where required.
- Working closely with colleagues to maintain high customer service standards and identify opportunities to improve technical processes.
The ideal 2nd Line IT Support Analyst will have:
- Previous experience in a 2nd Line IT Support, IT Support Engineer, Service Desk or similar technical support role.
- Good working knowledge of Microsoft 365, including administration, troubleshooting and user management.
- Experience supporting Windows Server environments, including Active Directory and Group Policy.

- Experience diagnosing and resolving technical issues across hardware, software and IT infrastructure.
- Confidence using ticketing systems and managing multiple technical support requests.
- Strong communication skills and the ability to explain technical issues clearly to customers.
- A proactive, organised approach with a genuine interest in developing technical knowledge.
Previous experience within a Managed Service Provider (MSP) would be advantageous, although candidates from internal IT support teams, education or multi-site organisations with strong technical experience are equally encouraged to apply.
