Description

Technology Service Desk Analyst - minimum 1 years experience 

 
Hybrid – 2 days at our Support Centre in Coleshill  

This team are occasionally on call to work extended hours after shift, from 5:30am - 9pm (you'd be on call 1 week in 8 and from Monday to Sunday and receive an additional payment).

A bit about our Technology Services team 


Our Technology Services Team supports hybrid working with colleagues across the country to deliver our change programmes, application architecture, development, testing, infrastructure, and support services to build and transform the business. 
 

We lead on digital and technology projects across all our functional teams by sharing ideas, prioritising our investments, and innovating to shrink, replace or re-write our older legacy systems through using the latest technologies and development approaches across all channels. It’s an exciting journey with heaps to learn and absorb. 
 

At the heart of all this, is our Technology Service Desk, supporting our 4,000 colleagues. We are adapting the team to align to the needs of our colleagues with exciting changes coming this year by evolving into a pro-active and continual improvement focused team. We’ve already hired some amazing talent from our stores and distribution centre - proving that knowledge from other areas of the business is a big head start for a career in Technology Services, we can show you the rest! 
 

Our hybrid model working means we balance working from home or in the office, using Microsoft Teams to maintain progress, focus, and provide mutual support. We have regular team briefings, learning sessions, on-line social sessions, and quizzes. Plus, every few months the whole Technology Services team will have a day together to help us develop ourselves and innovate and geek out over all the possibilities!

You’re a natural communicator who enjoys speaking with people. You’re a step ahead of the curve through keeping people in the loop on matters, so they’re not chasing for updates.

If presented with an issue, you seek to explore and understand – You’re able to listen and feel someone’s issues are understood through empathy whilst providing confidence that the issues will be resolved. 


You thrive on seeing things through to the end with a solution in place. You hold yourself to high standards and are proud of the quality of service and work you provide. You enjoy tech and have a real passion for it!
