At Focus Group, we're proud to be one of the UK's leading providers of IT, telecoms, connectivity and cybersecurity solutions. We support thousands of businesses across the country, combining technical expertise with a customer-first approach to deliver outstanding service and innovative technology solutions.

We're looking for an experienced 2nd Line Support Engineer to join a dedicated customer support team, providing technical expertise on escalated incidents and service requests across Microsoft 365, Windows Server, desktop, networking and wireless technologies.

The Role

  • Own and manage escalated support cases through to resolution.
  • Troubleshoot issues across Microsoft 365, Windows, Active Directory, networking and infrastructure environments.
  • Work closely with customer IT teams, Field Engineers, 3rd Line Support and external suppliers.
  • Escalate cases appropriately, providing clear technical handovers and documentation.
  • Contribute to root cause analysis, problem management and continuous service improvement.
  • Maintain accurate case records and ensure service levels are achieved.

Desirable Skills

Strong experience supporting Windows Desktop operating systems.

Experience troubleshooting Outlook, Exchange and Microsoft 365.

Working knowledge of Active Directory, Group Policy, DNS, networking, backup solutions, virtualisation, firewalls and routers.

Strong troubleshooting and remote diagnostic skills.

Confident working independently and managing multiple priorities.

Excellent communication skills with the ability to build strong relationships with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Experience with Cisco or Fortinet technologies, Mac OS, Linux, Veeam, VoIP, SQL or wider networking technologies would be advantageous.

Benefits

This is an excellent opportunity for a technically capable engineer who enjoys solving complex problems, collaborating with other IT professionals and taking ownership of challenging escalations within a growing and ambitious technology business.

Join Focus Group and be part of a team that values expertise, collaboration and delivering exceptional outcomes for our customers.
