Support Center Technician/Ambassadors are required to provide support to customer issues and resolve moderately complex problems in the areas of systems configuration/setup, product functionality, and systems enhancements; escalate to appropriate team, as needed.

Inquiries to the Support Center can be received via telephone and/or email. The Support Center Technician/Ambassador must be able to adjust to a rapidly changing environment and have excellent interpersonal, communication (both verbal and written) and problem solving skills. The Support Center Technician/Ambassador will serve as the voice of the customer while balancing the security and business requirements of the business. The ideal candidate must have a balance of customer service focused soft skills as well as an aptitude for the technical nature of this position.

This position may also require applicant to be primary onsite point of contact between the Support Center Team and our client. Applicant would be involved with the on-boarding of new clients and be the bridge between the previous IT Support and our Support Center; this role is customer service focused and requires the applicant to be technical and customer service focused.

Applicant will have strong interaction with our clients; they must be able to perform roles that are both technical and non-technical. Technical responsibilities are prioritized and driven by the client, and can include: desktop issues (hardware and software), server issues, primary "triage" troubleshooting that can be passed to a stronger technical resource if needed, items the Support Center are unable to work on remotely for example: connection issues.
