Most of your work will be remote through our helpdesk and RMM tools, with regular on-site visits to client offices across the UAE.

- Document fixes, configurations and client environments clearly

- Degree in IT, Computer Science or equivalent
- Minimum 2 years of IT support experience in the UAE with an MSP
- Hands-on experience with RMM tools (e.g. NinjaOne, ConnectWise, Datto)
- Experience working in a ticketing system with SLAs (e.g. Zohodesk, Freshdesk, Zendesk, HaloPSA)
- Microsoft 365 certification (e.g. MS-900, MD-102 or MS-102)
- Available to join immediately or within a short notice period
- Strong hands-on experience supporting Windows and macOS users
- Working knowledge of Windows Server, virtualization, and backup and disaster recovery
- Solid troubleshooting skills, with the habit of documenting every fix clearly
- Confident communicating with clients as their main technical point of contact
