Help Desk Technician

We are seeking an energetic, customer-focused Front-Line Help Desk Technician to serve as the initial point of contact for our managed service clients. Unlike our traditional account-assigned technicians, this role acts as our rapid-response triage specialist. Your primary focus will be handling quick-turnaround support requests, resolving simple technical issues efficiently, and ensuring our clients experience seamless, immediate assistance.

Key Responsibilities:

• Rapid Triage & Resolution: Process incoming support requests, resolving simple, high-frequency technical issues typically addressed in under 10 minutes.

• Account Navigation: Quickly identify client accounts, verify user credentials, and document all interactions within our ticketing system.

• Password & Access Management: Perform routine password resets, account unlocks, and basic permission updates across Active Directory and Microsoft 365

• Basic Troubleshooting: Handle standard Tier 1 fixes, including printer mapping, basic software installation, email client configuration, and standard connectivity checks.

• Escalation Management: Seamlessly route complex, time-consuming, or account-specific issues to the appropriate dedicated account technicians with detailed notes and troubleshooting steps already completed.

• Team Assistance: Assist Network Technicians and Engineers as needed with assigned tasks, routine follow-up, and support activities to help maintain efficient service delivery.

• Client Communication: Provide friendly, clear, and reassuring communication to end-users, maintaining high customer satisfaction (CSAT) scores. Requirements: Experience: Prior experience in a customer-facing technical support, MSP, or IT help desk environment is a plus, but not required. This is an entry-level role, and we are willing to train the right candidate with a strong customer service mindset and willingness to learn.

Technical Foundation: Basic understanding of Windows/macOS operating systems, Microsoft 365 administration, Active Directory, and standard networking concepts (DHCP, DNS, Wi-Fi).

Time Management: Exceptional ability to multitask, prioritize a high volume of quick requests, and work efficiently under pressure.

Communication: Outstanding verbal and written communication skills with a natural talent for translating technical concepts into plain English for non-technical users.

Mindset: A proactive, problem-solving attitude who thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys helping people. Reports to: Technical Services Manager Salary / Wage: $15-$18/hrAvailable: Immediately
