About the role
As a Desktop Support Analyst, you will provide high-quality technical support for our Sydney office and remote power generation sites. Reporting to the Service Delivery Manager, you’ll be responsible for the specification, installation, and testing of desktop systems, applications, and peripherals—ensuring everything aligns with established standards and best practices.

You’ll also play a part in maintaining and testing our national video conferencing infrastructure and associated equipment. This is a hands-on role that requires initiative, sound judgment, and the ability to solve problems independently with minimal supervision.
As this is an in-person support role, you'll be based in the office four days a week, with the flexibility to work from home one day per week.

Your experience
