Job Summary

The Service Desk Analyst is the first point of contact for Project end users, delivering end-to-end incident and service request resolution across hardware, software, connectivity, and application issues.

• Answer user questions on how to use systems/applications and provide guidance on best practices and security.
• Log, categorize, and track all reported incidents and service requests in ServiceNow through to closure.
• Own tickets end-to-end, ensuring the issue is fully resolved before closing rather than handing off prematurely.

• Support real-time sentiment tracking and Experience Level Agreement (XLA) metrics; escalate at-risk interactions.

• Support business continuity and disaster recovery protocols for the Service Desk function.
  
  

Required Qualifications & Skills

• Working knowledge of Windows/M365 endpoint troubleshooting, network basics (Wi-Fi/VPN), and account/email issues.
• Strong customer service, written and verbal communication skills; multilingual ability is a plus.
• Comfortable working in a ticketing system (ServiceNow preferred) and following ITIL-aligned incident processes.
• Ability to work rotating shifts/on-call as required to support 24/7 global coverage.
