  • Code B driver's licence and own car for field posts

  • At least 1 year of help desk or desktop support (not needed for intern posts)

Nice if you have

  • CompTIA Network+ or Microsoft MD-102 certification
  • ITIL Foundation
  • Experience supporting point-of-sale or medical devices

What's in it for you

  • Standby pay for after-hours cover
  • Travel allowance for field technicians
