Overview

We have partnered with one of the UK's leading providers of IT contract services to provide a real opportunity for individuals to begin a career as a Trainee IT Technician. Are you interested in a job embarking on a technical IT career? Are you frustrated that no one will give you that first chance? Are you friendly with great customer service skills? Utilising our training materials and our partner client's ongoing need for around 50 Trainee IT Support Technicians each month, we are able to offer an opportunity that will lead to a genuine employment position after completing the initial training. The support job position offers an income of £18k-£22k, dependant on location; working as a contractor or permanent staff to supply IT services to one of our partner's many client contracts. We are able to offer finance options for the training package, enabling you to start and finish the training promptly, and therefore move into the role as quickly as you can achieve the training goals set by our partner client. The training can be completed online meaning that you can continue in your current role until you are ready and qualified to progress. There is no need to find yourself trapped in a dead-end job when you can invest only £53 per month over 24 months into in your future, with quality online training. The Trainee IT Technician job roles offered are highly diverse from help desk positions, to operating as a field engineer. Candidates must have a full UK driver's licence and be prepared to work at locations up to 50 miles from home. (Most contracts will be within a 30 mile radius, and mileage allowances are paid outside of this.) The training package focuses on obtaining the industry recognised certifications required for most IT job roles and includes the costs of the CompTIA A examinations. Once you have passed these examinations you will attend 1 week of training and an assessment at our partner's Head Office location. Transport and accommodation will be included in the training package (subject to a maximum of £300). Upon completion of this 1 week IT technician training and assessment, our partner client will then offer you a position to work on their contracts within your location.
