Position Overview & Specifications
You will have excellent communication and customer relation skills together with the ability to identify PC and other Endpoint problems relayed to you by people with differing levels of technical understanding. You will have a sound, logical approach to problem solving as well as skills in prioritising and managing your own workload and the workload of the team.
Calls will come by telephone or online portal and you will be expected to either fix first time (50%) or pass on accurate and complete information to the other specialist resolver groups within the wider team.
Previous supervisory experience in an IT support role would be a distinct advantage, as would knowledge of Microsoft products. The Servicedesk has a ‘pop-up’ capability so you must be able to travel between Kirkcaldy and Dunfermline very occasionally and throughout Fife by exception.
A high level of English language competency and communication skills is necessary to perform this role safely and effectively. NHS Fife is a 24/7 organisation so you may be asked to work outside of normal office hours from time to time. There is also an opportunity for flexible working hours (within a flexible working policy) and some hybrid working between home and office.
