Do you enjoy a mix of virtual support and would love to move more into on-site hardware/networking field support? Would you like a generous flexible hybrid arrangement with some in office time weekly from a Cambridge, for a company that genuinely makes you feel part of the team?

If this rings true and you're perhaps stifled in an office and your current employer only wants you on the phone and doesn't gain benefit from progressing you more into on site field work, then we could have a fantastic role for you. We are partnered with one of the leading Microsoft IT Support companies in Cambridge, looking to hire a confident and capable IT Support Specialist into their growing operation.

You will want to get out more, and the great thing with this role is that you will also travel to client sites to resolve technical issues that cannot be resolved remotely. This can include installing, configuring, and troubleshooting hardware, software, and network components, conducting system audits and providing comprehensive reports on IT environments. In addition you will assist clients with IT infrastructure upgrades, migrations and new system deployments, whilst also providing on-site training to clients as needed.
