Job Information:

Functional Title: Infrastructure End User Support Specialist
Department: Digital Workspace
Corporate Level: Senior Associate
Reports To: Vice President, Infrastructure End User Support
Location: London, on-site 2 days per week

A Senior Associate role for an Infrastructure End User Support Specialist who can lead escalations, mentor colleagues, support modern endpoint management, and help launch our new Technology Bar.

Overview of the role:

CLS is modernizing the way technology is delivered to colleagues. We are moving further into a Windows 11 and Microsoft Intune managed estate, reducing reliance on legacy endpoint tooling, and opening a new Technology Bar in our refurbished London office. We are looking for a highly experienced Senior Desktop Support Engineer to become the senior technical member of our London End User Computing team. This is more than a traditional desktop role: you will be the person the team turns to for complex escalations, practical judgement, coaching, technical standards and service improvement. The role combines hands-on support, endpoint engineering, technical leadership, hardware service capability and project contribution. It is ideal for someone who wants to influence how an End User Computing function operates rather than simply work through a ticket queue.

What you will be doing:

How you will spend your time

Desktop Support - 45% - Senior escalations point for Windows 11, Microsoft 365 collaboration technologies, meeting rooms, executive support and complex incidents.
Endpoint Engineering - 25% - Intune, Autopilot, application development, endpoint compliance, hardware standards and device lifecycle management.
Technology Leadership - 20% - Mentoring engineers, leading investigations, improving documentation, setting standards and acting as the senior technical voice of the team.
Continuous improvements & innovation - 10% - Technology Bar development, automation of processes, Windows 11 rollout support, process optimization and measurable service improvements.

What we are looking for:

We are not looking for someone who only resolves individual tickets. We are looking for someone who asks why the issue happened, whether it will happen again, how the team can prevent it, and what can be improved so the next user has a better experience.

Key Technologies include:

Windows 11
Microsoft Intune / Windows Autopilot
Hardware vendor warranty tooling
Microsoft Entra ID
Microsoft 365
Exchange Online
Microsoft Teams
OneDrive
Endpoint Security
Active Directory
ServiceNow
PowerShell

Secondary / legacy technologies

SCCM - Supporting the transition to Intune
Citrix - Supporting the virtualized environment
Group Policy - Hybrid estate support
