Salary £48k - £65k D.O.E + full expenses/travel and bonus + benefits
General Career progression, great benefits and a supportive experienced team with optional travel to Australia, South Africa and Spain.
The Role
Operate at the highest level of the service desk within a dynamic MSP supporting critical business environments and demanding customers.
You will act as the senior technical authority during major incidents, escalations, and high-impact situations. This role combines deep technical expertise, decision-making under pressure, and excellent communication skills to manage both technical recovery and customer relationships.
You will interact with stakeholders ranging from end users to IT managers and directors, particularly during critical incidents where clarity, confidence, and accountability are as important as technical resolution.
You will join an international service team operating across three continents, working collaboratively with engineers and customers globally. This role offers opportunities to travel, mentor teams internationally, and support customers onsite when required.
While the role is primarily hybrid-based in Spain, travel will form part of the position, particularly to the United Kingdom, where most customers are based. There may also be occasional travel opportunities to Australia, South Africa, and other international locations depending on customer needs and project requirements.
We are therefore looking for candidates who are comfortable working in a global environment and open to occasional international travel.
