Your new role
As an IT Service Desk Analyst, you’ll be the first point of contact for technical support across DFS. You’ll provide friendly and efficient assistance with a focus on getting things right the first time, ensuring our colleagues stay connected, supported, and empowered to do their best work.

What you’ll be doing

• Log every call, provide swift and accurate support, and resolve issues in line with our incident management standards.
• Tackle hardware, software, email, password resets, mobile device, and IT equipment issues with empathy and determination.
• Pride yourself on resolving problems quickly and correctly, raising the bar for support excellence.
• When a situation needs more expertise, you’ll hand it over cleanly using our escalation process.
• Work closely with the broader IT team to maintain a 95% SLA, championing a ‘right first time’ service philosophy.
• Work comfortably in a dynamic, fast-paced environment, while staying cool, efficient, and dependable.
• Prepare laptops, desktops, and mobile devices with precision, ready for colleagues to hit the ground running.
• Keep support tickets updated with clear, concise notes right through to resolution.

The role is for you if…
You’ll bring together your technical know-how with a people-first approach to problem-solving. Being organised, analytical, and detail-focused will really help you shine in this role, along with a methodical way of working. Ideally, you’ll have around 12 months’ experience in a Service Desk or end-user support role, and it’s even better if that’s been in a fast-moving environment like retail.

It would be a bonus if you’ve got knowledge or hands-on experience with some of the following:

• Active Directory – user setup and administration
• Google Workspace (G Suite) – everyday support and troubleshooting
• Operating systems – Windows 10/11, macOS, Android, and Chrome OS
• Network & monitoring tools – ManageEngine, VPN, Meraki, PRTG Alerting

• ITSM platforms – Jira Service Management or another recognised tool
