About the role
CIBSE is looking for an On-Site IT Support Coordinator to provide practical, day-to-day support across its offices and the Skills Hub. This is a hands-on role focused on the physical side of IT support: issuing and recovering laptops, setting up desks and meeting rooms, supporting AV equipment, resolving local hardware issues, and making sure staff have immediate, in-person help when they need it.
The role is designed to complement CIBSE’s third-party IT support provider, not duplicate it. KVD will continue to handle wider technical support, systems administration and escalated issues but this role will add localised support and improve responses. This post is about the on-site tasks that need someone physically present, responsive and organised.
What you will do
-
Prepare, issue, collect and track laptops, monitors, peripherals and mobile devices
-
Set up new starters with hardware and desk equipment, and recover equipment from leavers
-
Provide first-line, in-person support for hardware issues including screens, docks, keyboards, mice, chargers and cabling
-
Support meeting rooms, presentation spaces and the Skills Hub with practical AV setup, including screens, HDMI connections, adapters, microphones and room equipment
-
Carry out routine checks to ensure shared equipment, desks and meeting spaces are ready for use
-
Maintain accurate local asset records for devices, accessories and stock
-
Manage small stocks of essential IT kit and accessories, and flag reordering needs
-
Coordinate with KVD on issues that require remote support, warranty handling, repair escalation or system-level intervention
-
Receive, unpack, label and deploy hardware delivered to site
-
Assist with office moves, desk changes and local equipment relocations
-
Provide basic practical support for printers and other shared office devices
-
Keep IT storage areas tidy, secure and organised
-
Act as a helpful, visible point of contact for staff needing quick on-site technical support
The above is not an exhaustive list of duties and you will be expected to perform other related tasks to meet the overall business objectives of the Institution.
