• Maintain knowledgebase documentation and build strong relationships across the organization through professional, responsive support
• Adapt to changing priorities while following company policies, safety standards, and IT best practices to ensure compliance and consistency

What Makes You a Great Fit

• 1–2+ years of IT support or help desk experience preferred
• Strong knowledge of Microsoft Office products
• Solid troubleshooting and problem-solving skills across hardware and software
• Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to support users at all levels
• Ability to prioritize tasks, manage time effectively, and meet deadlines
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
• A customer-first mindset with a focus on delivering high-quality support
• Ability to work independently while also contributing as part of a team
• Willingness to continuously learn and adapt to new technologies

What to Expect in This Role

• A mix of hands-on troubleshooting, user support, and system problem-solving across a variety of platforms and tools
• Daily interaction with teammates across the organization, building strong relationships while delivering responsive, solution-focused support
• Ownership of support tickets and documentation, with clear expectations around accuracy, follow-through, and communication
