We are looking for a Junior Technical Support Analyst to assist our customers with issues they encounter, when using our products and services.

The Junior Technical Support Analyst is the first contact point for our customers, and plays a vital role ensuring requests are handled efficiently, and escalated to the correct team for further analysis. As you progress in the role your responsibilities will expand to include resolving customer queries, recommending solutions and guiding product users through features and functionalities.

You will start in Level 1 support where you will learn on the job about our systems and our processes. After 6-9 months you will then move into Level 2 support, where you will begin to specialise in specific parts of the system, and continue to provide the best possible support to our customers.
