  • Ensuring best practice standards and practical problem-solving approaches are followed at all times.
  • Maintaining tools and test equipment in good working order.
  • Adhering strictly to parts processes and company procedures.
  • Utilizing escalation and support processes to resolve service delivery issues.
  • Working independently in the field with minimal supervision.
  • Lifting and carrying parts and equipment weighing up to 25 kg.
  • Extended periods of driving and travel within the PE & CB postal areas.

Essential Requirements

  • Minimum 3 years' proven experience diagnosing and repairing desktop and laptop hardware (HP & Lenovo preferred).
  • Strong hardware troubleshooting and break/fix repair experience.
  • Demonstrated ability to independently diagnose motherboard, storage, memory, PSU, and other hardware component failures.
  • Experience responding effectively to customer concerns and service requests.
  • Ability to work predominantly independently in a field-based environment.
  • Valid driver's license with a good driving record.
  • Willingness and ability to travel extensively (50%+ daily travel).
  • Physically capable of lifting and carrying up to 25 kg.

Preferred Skills

  • Manufacturer certifications (HP/Lenovo) will be advantageous.
  • Strong organizational and reporting skills.
  • Professional customer-facing communication skills.
  • Strong time management and route planning ability.
