Maintain accurate records of work completed, equipment deployed and unresolved issues.
Escalate more complex incidents appropriately, providing clear diagnostic information.
Communicate professionally with users at all levels, including those with limited technical knowledge.

Good working knowledge of Windows laptops and desktop computers.
Strong hardware and software troubleshooting skills.
Experience installing, configuring, deploying and replacing IT equipment.
Experience supporting users in the field rather than solely from behind a service desk.
The ability to follow technical documentation and use a knowledge-management system effectively.
