  • Track IT assets accurately, maintain inventory records, and help ensure equipment is assigned, recovered, and available when required.

Requirements

  • Familiarity with Active Directory and common user access tasks such as account support, permissions, and basic administrative changes.

  • Practical experience supporting Microsoft 365 applications and cloud-based collaboration tools.

  • Strong troubleshooting and analytical skills with the ability to assess issues methodically and deliver effective solutions.

  • Clear communication skills and a customer-focused approach when assisting both technical and non-technical users.

  • Ability to manage multiple support requests, prioritize effectively, and work independently while collaborating with broader IT teams and vendors. Technology Doesn’t Change the World, People Do.®
