Entry Level Help Desk Jobs in Homestead, FL (NOW HIRING)

Our mission at Dedicated IT is to help people and organizations be better tomorrow than they are today. We believe in our employees, their goals and aspirations, their morals and culture, even their preferred soda of choice (you should see our break fridge). It is our mission to create a fun and hard working environment for each one of them. We believe in a good healthy mixture of work and play in our daily activities where our employees feel at home and part of our family. We feel strongly that this gives our customers the best experience when interacting with any of our team members from service to sales.

We are seeking a dynamic service desk advocate to add to our field support team in Miami, Florida. This role is responsible for providing a blend of solving incoming support tickets based on priority and support project delivery across multiple clients and sites in a specific region. While tickets and projects will vary in complexity, the Service Desk Advocate – Field Support (SDA – Field Support) will primarily act as an initial escalation point for multiple clients and spends 80% of their time tending to clients onsite. Project participation and project management is secondary.

While prioritizing Critical and High Priority cases, it is expected that they will assist with any ticket, no matter how simple or low priority it is. The SDA – Field Support is expected to have an expert level in Windows 10 Operating System issues, an expert level understanding of our Client Specific Applications, an entry level understanding of troubleshooting and configuring Firewalls/Routers/Switches, the ability to troubleshoot basic Active Directory/DNS/SQL/DHCP/File Server Issues, and the ability to troubleshoot Office 365.
