We are looking for a Technology Service Desk Analyst to join our established Service Desk team, reporting to the Service Desk Manager.
This role is an excellent opportunity for someone with at least 12 months' experience in a Service Desk, Help Desk or Technical Support role who is looking to further develop their technical skills within a fast-paced retail environment.

We are looking for someone who is motivated, customer-focused, organised and enjoys solving problems. This role offers an excellent pathway into more technical Service Desk Engineer and Infrastructure positions as your skills and experience develop.
