Full-Time
2nd Line Technical Support Engineer
Location: Carlisle, Cumbria (On-site)
Position Type: Full-time, Permanent
Hours: Monday to Friday, 08:30 – 17:30
Salary: Competitive & Negotiable (Depending on experience)
About Global 4: We Love Tech. We Love Our People.
At Global 4, technology is our passion, but service excellence is our superpower. We advise, implement, and support market-leading telecom, connectivity, cloud, and IT services for businesses right across the UK.
We are fast-paced, forward-thinking, and growing. If you are a tech-driven problem solver who thrives on unraveling complex issues and delivering "hero-level" customer support, we want you on our team in Carlisle.
The Role: Why You Matter
As our 2nd Line Technical Support Engineer, you are the vital bridge between initial triage and deep infrastructure support. You will be the ultimate escalation point for our 1st Line team, taking true ownership of complex data, broadband, and Unified Communications (UCaaS) faults.
This isn't just about closing tickets; it’s about diving deep into multi-vendor platforms, running advanced diagnostics, and translating complex technical jargon into clear, reassuring updates for our customers.
What You’ll Be Doing:
*
Deep-Dive Troubleshooting: Resolve escalated incidents across broadband, VoIP, and network infrastructure using advanced tools (packet capture, SIP tracing, CLI/GUI router configs).
*
Vendor Collaboration: Partner with third-party carriers, hardware vendors, and hosted platforms to coordinate swift resolutions.
*
Proactive Monitoring: Keep an eye on system alerts and ticket queues, prioritising by severity to hit strict SLAs.
*
Root-Cause Analysis: Don't just fix the symptom—find the cause. Identify recurring faults to propose long-term process improvements.
*
Mentorship: Act as a technical beacon for the team, supporting junior staff and sharing your wisdom through documentation and peer mentoring.
What We Are Looking For
The Must-Haves (Essential):
*
Experience: Minimum of 2 years in a dedicated Telecoms Support or Managed Service Provider (MSP) helpdesk environment.
*
Networking Fundamentals: Rock-solid knowledge of IP Networking (DNS, DHCP, NAT, Subnetting, and VLANs).
*
Tech Protocol: Proven technical understanding of SIP Protocol behaviour and broadband technologies (FTTC, FTTP, ADSL).
*
The Mindset: A natural knack for problem-solving under pressure, incredible attention to detail, and top-tier organisation skills.
The Nice-to-Haves (Desirable Certifications):
If you have these, you’ll shoot straight to the top of our list!
*
CCNA or equivalent networking certification.
*
Practical knowledge of configuring and troubleshooting Meraki or DrayTek routers.
*
8x8 UCaaS Support Certification (or equivalent hosted VoIP platform qualifications).
Perks of the Job: What’s In It For You?
We believe in rewarding hard work with great benefits. Here is a snapshot of what you get when you join the Global 4 family:
*
Massive Utility Discounts: 50% off our Broadband & Utility packages, becoming 100% free after two years!
*
Generous Holiday: 25 days holiday + bank holidays (rising up to 30 days with length of service), plus a Buy & Sell holiday scheme.
*
Cash Incentives: £1,000 Refer-a-Friend scheme and a £250 "Bright Ideas" innovation reward.
*
Culture & Fun: Quarterly "Top Performer" days out and the legendary Friday Fridge to kick off the weekend.
*
Giving Back: Paid Charity leave to support causes close to your heart.
*
Peace of Mind: Death-in-service benefit included.
