Job Description

You'll be the person who fixes it when laptops, printers and logins break at a group of private schools in Polokwane. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

The site is in Polokwane; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

What your day looks like

  • Log, prioritise and update tickets on the service desk system
  • Visit branches or sites to fix issues that need hands on the machine
  • Image, set up and hand over new laptops and desktops
  • Troubleshoot Outlook, Teams and OneDrive problems for users
  • Install and configure printers, scanners and docking stations
  • Write short how-to guides for common user problems
  • Replace faulty hardware and log warranty claims with suppliers

Must-haves

  • Matric plus an IT qualification, such as CompTIA A+ or an IT diploma
  • Patient and friendly with non-technical users
  • Code B driver's licence and own car for field posts
  • Able to log clear, complete ticket notes
  • Working knowledge of Windows 10 and 11 and Microsoft 365
  • Basic networking: IP addresses, DNS, DHCP and Wi-Fi

Nice if you have

  • Experience with Intune or SCCM for device management
  • Experience supporting point-of-sale or medical devices

What's in it for you

  • Travel allowance for field technicians
  • Standby pay for after-hours cover
  • Paid certification exams after probation
  • Company laptop and cellphone
