5What you get to decide, and how that grows

Power in a job isn't your title. It's what you're allowed to decide. Here's how it grows as you move up.

The choiceComing in Where you are nowThe step above
Troubleshooting Approach Follows documented steps; escalates when standard solutions fail. Relies heavily on supervisor guidance for non-routine issues. Independently chooses diagnostic path for routine and some non-routine issues; adapts standard approaches. Consults manager on novel problems. Defines and refines troubleshooting methodologies; makes complex technical decisions within workstream scope. Mentors others on best practices.
Escalation Escalates any issue beyond basic, documented fixes or when unsure. Supervisor reviews all escalations. Decides when to escalate after independent troubleshooting; provides comprehensive notes for L3. Informs manager of critical escalations. Acts as an escalation point for L1/L2; decides when to involve other teams for complex problems. Makes recommendations to leadership on systemic issues.
Knowledge Base Contribution Searches for and applies existing KB articles. Flags outdated or incorrect information for review. Authors, reviews, and updates KB articles based on new solutions or recurring issues. Ensures clarity and accuracy. Designs KB article templates and governance; leads initiatives to improve knowledge sharing and adoption across the team. Mentors others on KCS principles.

Evaluates new software/hardware for helpdesk use; makes recommendations for standardisation. Manages vendor relationships up to £5K spend with manager approval.

6How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, and what is not on it. The hard targets, how often each is actually looked at, and the quiet signals that never reach a dashboard.

First Call Resolution (FCR) Rate
The percentage of issues you resolve completely on the first contact, without needing to pass them on or follow up later. This is the holy grail for us.
Target · > 75%

If you handle 100 tickets in a week and solve 80 of them straight away, that's an 80% FCR. We want you to nail as many as possible without escalation.

Average Handle Time (AHT)
The typical amount of time you spend on a single support interaction, from the moment you pick up the phone or open the ticket until the issue is resolved or escalated. We're looking for efficiency, but not at the expense of quality.
Target · < 15 minutes for calls, < 4 hours for ticket resolution.

You resolve a printer issue in 12 minutes on the phone, or a software installation request in 3 hours via ticket. We're tracking these times to spot areas for improvement.

Customer Satisfaction (CSAT) Score
How happy our users are with the support they receive from you, usually measured by a quick survey after their issue is closed. It's all about making them feel listened to and helped.
Target · Average score > 4.5/5.0

After you fix someone's email, they get a survey and rate you a 5/5. We track your average score to ensure you're consistently delivering a great experience.

Ticket Backlog Reduction
How well you manage your own queue, making sure tickets aren't sitting around for too long. It's about staying on top of things and keeping the flow moving.
Target · Maintain personal backlog below 10 tickets by end of week

You start Monday with 12 open tickets, clear 10, and get 8 new ones. By Friday, you've got 7 open. That's a good week.

Quality of Troubleshooting & Documentation
This is about how thoroughly you investigate problems and how clearly you document your steps and solutions in the ticket and, crucially, in our knowledge base. We want to see you getting to the root cause, not just patching symptoms.
  • Detailed, logical troubleshooting notes in tickets
  • clear, concise, and accurate new or updated Knowledge Base (KB) articles
  • positive feedback from L3 teams on the information you provide when escalating.
Proactive Problem Identification
Are you just fixing what's broken, or are you spotting patterns? We're looking for you to notice when the same issue keeps popping up and flagging it, rather than just resolving each instance in isolation.
  • You'll bring recurring issues to team meetings
  • you'll propose potential root causes or suggest new KB articles for common problems
  • you'll be the first to notice a trend before it becomes a major incident.
Peer Support & Knowledge Sharing
How well you help out your teammates, share what you've learned, and contribute to the team's overall knowledge. It's about making everyone better, not just yourself.
  • You're actively answering questions in team chat
  • you're helping new starters get comfortable
  • you're sharing interesting fixes or new techniques you've discovered
  • you're reviewing colleagues' KB articles before publication.
Adherence to ITIL Processes
Following our established processes for incident, problem, and service request management. It might sound a bit dry, but it keeps us organised and compliant.
  • Tickets are categorised correctly
  • incident priority is set accurately
  • change requests are raised when needed
  • service requests follow the correct workflow
  • audit trails are complete.

7Would you like it

Both sides. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Solving Puzzles

You get a real buzz from taking a completely baffling technical issue, breaking it down, and figuring out the solution. It's like being a detective every day.

A user reports 'my internet is slow' – you don't just restart their router. You check their VPN, run a speed test, look at network diagnostics, and discover a rogue application hogging bandwidth. That's a win.

Helping People

You genuinely enjoy making someone's day better by fixing their tech problems. Seeing the relief on a user's face (or hearing it in their voice) is what keeps you going.

You help a colleague recover a critical file they thought was lost forever, or you get their presentation working just minutes before a big client call. The gratitude is immediate and tangible.

Continuous Learning

The world of IT never stands still, and you love that. You're always keen to learn about new software, new hardware, and new ways to troubleshoot. Every ticket is a potential learning opportunity.

You encounter an issue you've never seen before. Instead of just escalating, you dive into documentation, forums, and test environments to understand it, adding a new skill to your repertoire.

What frustrates people
  • The 'I already restarted' lie: You'll spend 20 minutes troubleshooting, only to ask the user to reboot, which magically fixes the problem they swore a reboot didn't fix. It's infuriating.
  • The vague ticket: Getting tickets with the subject 'Broken' and the description 'It's not working.' You'll feel like a detective before you can even start troubleshooting.
  • Metric pressure vs. quality service: Sometimes, you'll feel pushed to meet a low 'Average Handle Time' or high 'FCR' rate, which discourages spending the extra time to find the root cause of a complex issue.
  • Caught in the crossfire: Being the middleman between a frustrated user and a different, less communicative IT team (e.g., developers, network engineers), relaying messages and absorbing frustration from both sides.
  • Shadow IT cleanup: Dealing with the fallout when a user installs unapproved software that breaks their machine or creates a security risk, and you have to be the one to fix it and enforce the policy.
  • The repetition grind: The soul-crushing monotony of handling the same five issues (password resets, printer mapping) over and over again, especially when you feel capable of more challenging work.
What this role does not give you
  • A quiet, solitary work environment – you'll be interacting with people constantly.
  • Complete control over your daily schedule – urgent issues will always pop up and demand your attention.
  • A guaranteed 'thank you' for every fix – sometimes, people just expect things to work.
  • Deep, long-term project work – most of your tasks will be reactive and shorter-term.

8Who you work with

Your work directly impacts employee productivity and satisfaction across the entire company. Every minute a user is stuck, that's a minute lost for the business. By quickly and effectively resolving issues, you keep everyone working, reduce frustration, and help maintain a positive perception of the IT department. You're essentially the engine oil that keeps the company's operational gears turning smoothly.

Inside the business
  • All company employees (your primary 'customers')
  • IT Support Manager (your direct line)
  • Level 3 IT Support Specialists (for escalations)
  • Networking Team (for connectivity issues)
  • Software Development Team (for application bugs)
  • HR and People Operations (for onboarding/offboarding tech)
Outside the business
  • Software vendors (for specific product support)
  • Hardware suppliers (for warranty claims)

9What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • At least 2 years of hands-on experience in an IT support or helpdesk role, where you've independently resolved user issues.
  • Proven ability to troubleshoot both hardware and software problems across Windows and macOS environments.
  • Experience with at least one major ITSM platform (e.g., ServiceNow, Jira Service Management) for ticket management.
  • A solid grasp of Active Directory or similar identity management systems for user and group administration.
  • Demonstrable experience in providing excellent customer service, even to frustrated users.
  • The ability to clearly explain technical concepts to non-technical individuals, both verbally and in writing.

10What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

Cloud Service Support (Azure/AWS/GCP Basics)

More and more of our infrastructure and applications are moving to the cloud. You'll need a basic understanding of how these services work to troubleshoot access issues, connectivity problems, or basic service outages that aren't on-premise.

Cloud Identity & Access Management · Basic Cloud Networking · Cloud Service Health Dashboards

  • This month: Complete a free online 'Cloud Fundamentals' course (e.g., Microsoft Azure Fundamentals AZ-900 or AWS Cloud Practitioner).
  • Next month: Shadow an L3 engineer who works with cloud infrastructure to see how they troubleshoot cloud-related issues.
  • Month 3: Get familiar with our internal cloud service architecture (if available) and identify key services you might support.
  • Month 4: Practice troubleshooting hypothetical cloud access problems in a test environment.

Quick win: Familiarise yourself with the public status pages for Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud. Bookmark them. You'll thank yourself during the next major outage.

Basic Scripting & Automation (PowerShell/Python)

Repetitive tasks are ripe for automation. Knowing how to write simple scripts will allow you to automate user account modifications, bulk software installations, or generate custom reports, making you much more efficient.

Scripting Fundamentals · API Interaction Basics · Error Handling

  • This month: Take an online beginner's course in PowerShell (for Windows) or Python (more general).
  • Next month: Identify one small, repetitive task you do daily and try to write a simple script to automate part of it.
  • Month 3: Work with an L3 engineer to understand how they use scripting for their tasks and ask for mentorship.
  • Month 4: Contribute a small, useful script to the team's shared utility library.

Quick win: Learn a few basic PowerShell commands for Active Directory (e.g., `Get-ADUser`, `Set-ADUser`) or Python commands for file manipulation. Start small, build confidence.

11Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Regularly engage with online IT communities and forums (e.g., Reddit's r/sysadmin, Spiceworks) to learn from peers and stay updated.
  • Attend webinars or online training sessions on new software releases, cybersecurity threats, or cloud technologies.
  • Take advantage of any internal training programmes we offer on our specific systems or new tools.
  • Shadow L3 specialists or other IT teams to gain exposure to more complex infrastructure and problem-solving.
  • Actively contribute to and consume articles from our internal knowledge base, making it a living, breathing resource.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, the helpdesk can get swamped. But what if you could offload the repetitive stuff and focus on the really interesting, complex problems? That's where AI comes in. We're not talking about replacing you; we're talking about giving you a seriously powerful co-pilot.

We're investing heavily in AI tools to make your life easier, not harder. You'll be using these to cut down on the boring bits, get faster answers, and communicate more effectively, giving you back precious time to actually solve problems and learn new things.

Automated Triage & Resolution

Imagine an AI chatbot integrated into Teams or Slack that handles all those common, low-complexity requests like password resets, software access, or 'how do I connect to the VPN?' It'll deflect a huge chunk of tickets, meaning you get fewer of the mundane ones.

Predictive Problem Spotting

AI tools will chew through incoming ticket data in real-time, looking for patterns. It could flag that 20 tickets from the Manchester office just came in about 'slow internet', automatically identifying a potential outage before it even hits your queue. You'll be proactive, not just reactive.

Instant Knowledge Assistant

No more endless searching through Confluence, SharePoint, or old vendor manuals. An AI search assistant will instantly pull up context-aware solutions. You'll just ask, 'How do I fix Outlook error 0x8004010F on a Dell Latitude 7420?' and get a step-by-step guide, saving you loads of research time.

Empathetic Communication Co-Pilot

This AI won't just write for you; it'll help you draft clear, empathetic user communications. It can summarise complex technical notes from an engineer into a user-friendly update or suggest softer phrasing for delivering bad news. 'Server is down' becomes 'We're experiencing a service interruption and our team is working on it now.' It's about making you sound even better.
