    Level 2 Technical Support Specialist


    The L2 Technical Support Specialist role is super important around here — it's the heartbeat of making sure our clients' IT systems are safe, secure, and up to snuff. This star player gets to work closely with the IT team, offering guidance, managing the daily ins and outs of tasks and tickets, and keeping the team running like a well-oiled machine. But it's not just about keeping things moving; it's about being a bit of a detective, too. Spotting the big-picture issues before they become headaches, brainstorming smart fixes, or knowing when to pass the baton for a little tech magic or a workflow tweak. It's all in a day's work.

    And because teamwork makes the dream work, this role is all about joining forces with teammates, outside experts, and different departments to make sure the support we provide is nothing short of stellar. It's a role for a real go-getter, someone who's all about making things better, one IT challenge at a time. **
