Senior ICT Technician

Location: Wye School

Salary: Competitive

Closing Date: Monday 21st June 2021

Interviews: w/c 28th June 2021

 

The role

We are seeking to appoint a Senior ICT Technician to support Wye School.

 

You will work with the Business Manager to ensure the smooth operational management of IT Services throughout the school, by supporting the school with their individual IT and technology requirements.

 

This involves overseeing the provision of all IT equipment, assisting in the operation of the Helpdesk to deliver support to all staff, maintaining network documentation and implementing all policies and procedures relating to IT and acceptable use.

 

About You

The ideal candidate will have strong skills in the management and troubleshooting of networked systems and working knowledge of effective service management methodologies (FITS/ ITIL or similar) as well as possess the ability to effectively communicate and collaborate with users of all abilities and seniority across all schools.

 

Applications will be considered on receipt. Suitable candidates will be interviewed on receipt of application and Wye School reserves the right to withdraw the position if an early appointment is made. 

 

Wye School is part of United Learning, a large, and growing, group of schools aiming to offer a life changing education to children and young people across England.

 

Our schools work as a team and achieve more by sharing than any single school could. Our subject specialists, our Group-wide intranet, our own curriculum and our online learning portal all help us share knowledge and resource, helping to simplify work processes and manage workloads for an improved work-life balance.

 

As a Group, we can reward our staff better: with good career opportunities, better pay, benefits, and ultimately, the satisfaction of helping children to succeed. We invest in our staff wellbeing. Our academies each have at least eight INSET days per year (with three of those solely dedicated to planning), and an ongoing group-wide wellbeing programme. It's an ethos we call ‘the best in everyone’.
