Jack McCauley-Kite
IT Support Technician
SUMMARY
I am a highly motivated and enthusiastic individual with over four years of IT support experience within the accountancy, insurance, agri and dairy sectors. During my career, I have demonstrated the ability to work independently, as well as in a collaborative team environment. I have excellent communication and organisational skills, allowing me to manage expectations, and deliver results in an efficient manner. I pride myself on making the IT department the most respected in the company, by being a dependable member of the team and enabling the business to function without IT issues causing a hindrance.
Outside of the working environment I take time to continue my professional development partaking in online studying, forums with other IT professionals and setting myself learning objectives. I have a keen interest in Azure Cloud and gaining further knowledge of on-premise and cloud hybrid infrastructure and support.
