The Role
This is a hands-on help desk role with a clear path to grow into systems, projects, and higher-level IT work.
You'll be the first person clients talk to when something breaks, and you'll take ownership of getting it resolved.
This role is a good fit if you:
- Enjoy figuring out root causes (not just quick fixes)
- Like clean systems, documentation, and doing things right
- Want to grow beyond help desk into real IT responsibility
You'll work directly with a small, experienced team and get exposure to Microsoft 365, security tools, networking, and real business environments.
We're looking for someone who wants to build real IT skills over time, not just close tickets.
Team Structure
We're a small, two-person technical team today. That means:
- You'll work closely with experienced leadership, not layers of management
- You'll have direct exposure to real systems, clients, and decisions
- Your work will matter and be visible
This is not a large help desk environment. You won't be siloed into one narrow role. You'll learn how systems actually work across the business.
We're growing intentionally and building the team the right way.
Why This Role Is Different
Most help desk jobs are high-volume and reactive. This isn't.
- We focus on fixing root causes, not repeating tickets
- We document everything and improve systems over time
- You'll work on internal projects, not just tickets
- You'll get exposure to real environments across multiple industries
Typical Responsibilities
- Respond to help desk tickets via email and phone
- Troubleshoot Windows, Microsoft 365, and basic network issues
- Document issues and solutions clearly
- Maintain and improve internal documentation and client environments
- Assist with employee onboarding and offboarding (accounts, devices, access)
- Set up and deploy new workstations and user environments
- Contribute to internal improvements and automation
Growth Path
This role is designed to grow into:
- Project work (migrations, deployments)
- Systems administration
- Vendor and infrastructure exposure
We'll give you structure, mentorship, and real responsibility over time.
