About The Team

The GIST IT Helpdesk is the front line for supporting Bloomreachers with secure, reliable access to our tools, data, and devices. The team manages access to company systems, laptops, and core collaboration platforms (e.g., Google Workspace, Slack, Zoom, Freshservice, JumpCloud) with a strong focus on access minimization and security best practices.

Location: London (two days per week in office) – with flexibility to support a global, remote-first workforce.

Role Overview

As an IT Helpdesk Support (P1), you are an early-career IT professional focused on learning and executing well-defined, foundational support tasks under close guidance. You will:

• Handle basic, clearly scoped incidents and service requests via email, chat (Slack), and support tickets (Freshservice), following established runbooks
• Support account lifecycle operations (onboarding, offboarding, access changes) across key SaaS tools via JumpCloud and related systems
• Contribute to the security and stability of our environment by applying standard procedures for access, device, and account protection

This is an excellent entry point into corporate IT, with a clear growth path toward more independent P2/P3 roles in Infrastructure, Security Operations, or broader GIST functions.

Documentation & Knowledge

• Follow existing knowledge base articles in Bloomroom – IT Helpdesk and contribute updates for common issues and workflows.
• Document resolutions and workarounds clearly in tickets to support future self-service and reduce repeat incidents.
