Summary

Make a Real Impact Through Technology

At Jewish Care, we’re on an exciting journey to transform how we work through digital innovation. Our new Digital Transformation Programme will help us deliver better services, enhance quality, and empower our people with the right tools and systems to support those who rely on us.

We’re looking for an enthusiastic IT Helpdesk professional to join our growing team. You’ll be the first point of contact for staff IT issues — ensuring queries are resolved quickly, efficiently, and with excellent customer care.

This role is based onsite five days per week at one of our main campuses, giving you the opportunity to work closely with colleagues and be at the heart of our operations.

Hours: 36.25 hours per week, with participation in a 1 week on / 3 weeks off on-call rota

Our campuses are:
  • Maurice and Vivienne Wohl Campus, Golders Green, NW11 9DQ
  • Sandringham Campus, Stanmore, HA3 7AF
  • The Betty and Asher Loftus Centre, Friern Barnet, N11 3ND
  • Redbridge Campus, currently in Ilford, IG2 6JH — with our new Redbridge Campus set to open in early summer 2026 (IG4 5LN).

If you’re passionate about problem-solving, enjoy helping people, and want to be part of a digital change that makes a real difference, this could be the perfect opportunity.

What You’ll Do
  • Act as the first point of contact for IT support requests – in person, by phone, email, and through the helpdesk system.
  • Diagnose and troubleshoot hardware, software, and network issues — both onsite and remotely.
  • Provide clear updates and communication to end users, ensuring a high level of customer satisfaction.
  • Escalate complex issues to senior IT staff as required, while maintaining oversight of progress.
  • Support cybersecurity and data protection practices under the guidance of the IT Security & Risk Manager.
  • Work in line with ITIL best practice, meeting SLAs and ensuring efficient and compliant service delivery.
  • Collaborate with IT colleagues across campuses and the Digital Support Hub to share knowledge and improve the overall IT experience.
What You’ll Bring
  • Experience: At least 2 years in an IT Helpdesk or technical support role.
  • Knowledge: Strong understanding of Microsoft 365; familiarity with ITIL processes and service management.
  • Skills: Excellent communication, problem-solving, and organisational skills; ability to explain technical issues clearly to non-technical users.
  • Attitude: Dependable, customer-focused, and proactive in finding solutions.
Desirable:
  • Experience with care systems (e.g. Nourish, Nurse Call, eMAR)
  • Knowledge of IT security principles and mobile device management (Android and Apple)
  • Qualifications such as NVQ Level 3/BTEC in IT or ITIL v4 certification
Why Jewish Care?

Join a values-driven organisation where technology supports compassion and care. You’ll be part of a friendly, supportive IT team that’s passionate about making a difference for staff and the people we serve.
