We’re working with a leading global insurer looking to hire a Technical Support Specialist for their IT & Operations team in Birmingham. This role sits at the heart of their internal support function, helping onboard new users, resolving day-to-day issues, and keeping systems running smoothly. You’ll manage support tickets, maintain documentation, and make sure users get a fast, reliable service every time. If you’re the kind of person who enjoys solving problems, improving processes, and delivering great service, this is an opportunity to do all three within a business that’s serious about technology and people.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Act as the first line of support for all technical queries, managing and triaging tickets via Wrike
  • Onboard new users to internal systems and provide ongoing support to existing users
  • Troubleshoot and resolve user issues efficiently, escalating to 2nd line where necessary
  • Maintain internal documentation and knowledge bases using Confluence
  • Keep users informed on ticket progress and resolution updates
  • Identify opportunities to improve support processes and overall user experience

What You’ll Bring

  • Previous experience in a technical support or IT helpdesk role
  • Familiarity with ticket management systems (Wrike experience is ideal)
  • Ability to create and maintain documentation in Confluence or similar
  • Excellent communication skills and a customer-first mindset
  • A proactive approach to continuous improvement and problem-solving

Nice to have

  • Experience in a customer-facing role
  • Exposure to Agile ways of working or tools like JIRA
  • Understanding of user-centric design principles

Why This Role?

You’ll be part of a collaborative team within a global insurer that’s investing heavily in its technology and operations. You’ll have space to learn, contribute, and grow while working on meaningful support challenges that make a difference to the business.
