IT Support Specialist

Are you looking for?

• Flexibility that fits your life, including hybrid work-from-home options
• Paid time off driven by results and well-being, not a fixed number of days
• A fun, collaborative environment 
• Support for continued learning and career growth
• A culture based on trust, accountability, and bringing your whole self to work

We are seeking an IT Support Specialist to join our internal IT team. This is an entry-level, internally facing help desk position that supports employees across the organization with day-to-day technology needs, business application support, and Microsoft 365 tools.

What's the work like?

You will...

• Provide Tier 1 support for employee technology issues, including desktop, hardware, software, and Microsoft 365 applications  
• Troubleshoot and resolve help desk tickets involving Windows, Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Teams, and SharePoint

• Work with senior IT staff on support-related projects involving automation, scripting, process improvement, and technology standardization  
• Coordinate with software and technology vendors when escalation or additional support is needed
