We are working with a growing MSP in Edinburgh who are looking for a 1st Line IT Support Technician to join their team.

We're not expecting you to know everything. What's important is that you have a good technical foundation, enjoy solving problems, and are keen to keep learning.

You will ideally have:

Around one year's commercial IT support experience

Experience working in a service desk or help desk environment

Good knowledge of Windows and Microsoft 365

A methodical approach to troubleshooting

Strong communication and customer service skills

A genuine interest in developing your IT career
