My Client, a fantastic provider of IT services in the Aberdeen area, are looking to take on a senior IT engineer to join their team on a full time permanent basis.


The following provides an example list of their day-to-day key responsibilities. However, one thing we can promise is that these will change over time as the business adapts to technology and customer demands. We need someone who is excited at that prospect.


- Mentor and support the technical team with customer service request escalations, setting an example of the highest possible standards.

- Communicate directly, professionally, and clearly with customers to resolve technical service requests.

- Implement and maintain internal systems for a variety of functions, including backups and disaster recovery, email filtering, endpoint security, performance monitoring, customer reporting, etc.

- Produce customer reports, ensuring quality and accuracy.

- Work closely with the Security Lead to ensure all solutions, internal and external, are both technically sound and secure.

- Own a portfolio of customers for account management and ensure they feel loved.

- Support the sales team in the development of technical solutions and proposals, including costing and procurement.

- Communicate directly and effectively with suppliers to obtain technical information and pricing, or to resolve issues.

- Stay up to date with industry trends and emerging technologies, participating in training and obtaining certifications as needed.

- Accurately record their work for the benefit of the team and billing.


Personal Qualities and Soft Skills


The following are necessary for the person to be successful in this role.

- Assertive and confident, but not rude or curt

o Confident in their own knowledge and willing to challenge (management,

colleagues, and clients).

o Unprompted, takes a lead on setting the goals and standards for the company

in a measured way. Gets things done within the bounds of the company

values without waiting for others to make suggestions or give instructions.

o Gets a buzz from delivering amazing customer service.

- Detail-orientated

o The role requires the incumbent to define end-to-end technical solutions,

including requirements analysis, costings, and documentation. They must

work through every detail and be able to visualise likely hurdles or

complications and produce customer-facing proposals to the standard we

need.

o They need to be able to write client-facing comms and documents with

correct grammar, absence of typos, etc., as well as technical accuracy.

o Methodical, evidence-based, logical approach to problem-solving, with

detailed recording of work done.


- Professional

o Appearance, language, timekeeping, communications are all ‘business class’.

o Collaborates with the team to ensure the best possible outcome for the customer and the business.


- Empathetic


o When dealing with clients, prospects, and colleagues, demonstrates understanding of issues from the other’s point of view in a way that reassures the other person that their situation is understood. For clients, this might be showing understanding of the hassle and impact a technical problem is making for them.


- Flexible to requirements of the business


o Willingly takes on the work that needs to be done, without staying within their own area of comfort / demarcation. Resourceful in finding solutions. Enthusiastic about working in a multi-client environment/environment where the things we do change pretty frequently.
