Field Support Technician - Onsite Anchor

Description

At a regional field site, there is no help desk down the hall. When a workstation fails, a printer goes down, or a conference room will not connect, you are the person everyone turns to. As the Onsite Anchor, you will be IT's face, hands, and judgment on the ground.

QBE is seeking a motivated Field Support Technician - Onsite Anchor to serve as the on-site IT decision-maker for assigned regional and field locations of a Department of War agency supported by an enterprise IT Customer Support Services program. Operating without on-site supervision, you will analyze escalated issues involving end-user computing, printers, mobile devices, and communications equipment to determine root cause and the appropriate resolution approach; decide when remote Tier II/III, engineering, or vendor involvement is required; determine the deployment and refresh approach for site workstations; and analyze site asset records to recommend lifecycle actions. The role requires travel within the assigned region, sound independent judgment, and the ability to represent IT to site leadership. This is a salaried, FLSA-exempt position in which you will independently analyze situations, determine the appropriate course of action, and exercise discretion and independent judgment on matters of significance to the program and its customers.

If you enjoy owning the outcome, thrive on variety, and like being the one who makes things work when no one else is around, this role was built for you.
