IT Technician

Project overview

Your new company

This is a well-established further education provider based in the Southport area, offering a broad range of vocational, technical and professional education to young people and adult learners. The college has invested significantly in creating modern, industry-focused learning environments, with specialist facilities across areas including engineering, construction, science, health and social care, and the creative industries. There is a strong focus on providing students with practical, career-focused learning, supported by modern facilities and technology.

This creates a varied and busy environment for the IT team, supporting the technology that underpins teaching, learning and wider college services.

Your new role

As an IT Technician working as part of this well-established team, you will provide hands-on technical support across the college, helping to ensure staff and students have access to reliable IT systems and equipment. You'll respond to day-to-day IT queries, troubleshoot hardware, software and connectivity issues, support devices and classroom technology, and assist with the general maintenance of the college's IT environment.

This is initially a temporary position, ideal for someone who can quickly settle into a busy education environment and provide responsive, customer-focused service, but who is ideally seeking a permanent position longer term.

What you'll need to succeed

In order to be successful in securing this position, you will have recent first line IT support experience, working in a customer-facing environment where you have worked with both hardware, software and bespoke technologies. You will be immediately available, willing to commit to a temporary position initially for a period of 4 weeks, with the potential to extend and become more permanent. Strong communication and relationship building skills, as well as being a collaborative team player are also essential.

What you'll get in return

You'll be joining a respected education provider based in Southport, supporting a busy learning environment with a strong focus on delivering a positive experience for its students. You'll become part of a friendly and collaborative organisation, where effective IT services are essential to supporting staff, students and the wider college community.
