The Service Desk within NHG is a key part of the service model that the IT Department has recently transitioned to.
We are looking to recruit a Service Support Analyst interested in playing an active role in developing the team to ensure it provides a mix of exceptional customer service and effective technical support.
Main Responsibility
Service Support Analyst staff within NHG need to have excellent communication skills. These skills will enable the post holder to engage with customers effectively capturing and diagnosing IT faults or requirements. The post holder will use the information they capture to generate accurate incident or service request records, the quality of these records will enable IT colleagues to resolve them within our Service Level Agreement (SLA).
In terms of role location, the Service Support Analyst will be required to work from any of the NHG Offices including providing remote support.
The Ideal Candidate
As a Service Support Analyst, you will be expected to demonstrate previous experience successfully, delivering in a customer focussed business, with high levels of customer satisfaction, experience in the support of complex IT Systems in a complex environment.
The Service Desk team will be required to operate to SLAs and Key Performance Indicators in terms of call handling, records generated, and records resolved at first line. The team is required to resolve incidents and provide effective IT guidance to customers. We, therefore, require analysts to have a good foundation of technical knowledge, ideally ECDL or above, and an ability to apply their knowledge practically.
Within NHG we have recently started using Service Now as a service management solution so previous experience of this would be an advantage.
In terms of technology, NHG utilises a range of bespoke applications and we will work with the team to build their knowledge on supporting them. The IT team is currently working to ensure all NHG staff use Microsoft Office 365 so experience of supporting this model would be an advantage. Equally experience of working in Active Directory, network protocols, In-Tune, Auto-Pilot, SCCM and Asset Management is essential for this post.
NHG IT is seeking to embed ITIL practices throughout the department, processes and procedures so experience of working within ITIL and / or ITIL qualifications would be an advantage.
