Support is provided through multiple channels, including in-person assistance, digital systems, and automated services. This position works collaboratively with departments across campus, coordinates resources for internal and external events, and may supervise and mentor student customer service representatives.
The Technical Services Specialist II role serves as a development position, building technical and service management expertise with increasing independence.
