IT Support Technician

At Maersk, our ambition is nothing less than to become the global leader in integrated logistics, offering a truly end-to-end service that makes trade simpler and easier than ever.

Overview :
The Country Cluster IT Transformation project transfers the day-today operation of ML IT activities away from the Country Clusters to central ML IT management. To ensure regional business areas have strong, focused IT management and representation, a lean empowered Account Management team has been created based in each of the regions. The Workspace Management (WSM) Technician roles are a part of that team and will be specifically responsible for the provision of onsite WSM support to our business customers.
Responsibilities :
• The WSM Technician’s primary focus is to provide onsite support for desktop management, asset management and physical support for other IT equipment including servers, switches, printers, cabling etc.
• The majority of Maersk Line IT services will be provided remotely, including software distribution and packaging, monitoring and infrastructure services, desktop and server patching, storage services, backup, restore and archiving.
• The WSM Technician will be responsible for fulfilling those services which require physical onsite presence, and assisting the remote support teams.
• The Global Service Desk (GSC) will be the single point of contact for all user requests and incident reporting. This global standard support process will drive the workload and priorities of the WSM Technician who will be responsible for actioning those requests for services which are assigned to them and for meeting agreed service levels.
• Additional responsibilities include acting as a local project coordinator for hardware/software updates and rollouts, country cluster and/or regional infrastructure consolidation activities (driven at regional or global level) and support for other technical projects.
• As part of the Account Management team, it will be important that the WSM Technician establishes good working relationship with the Maersk Line business and other APMM Business Units where these are supported, and provides best in class customer service within the framework of Maersk Line IT processes, standards and architecture. They will communicate and help bed-in locally ML’s IT standards and strategies relating to local IT support.
• Because of the continuous nature of change within the Maersk Line organization, the WSM Technician may find himself/herself in situations where service improvement is required or tasks fall outside of the specific role of workspace management. In such cases the WSM Technician should take a practical approach to a solution which upholds and reinforces standard processes, minimizes impact to the business and ensures that any lessons learned are incorporated into subsequent process and service improvement.
Specific Responsibilities:
• Provide onsite support to Maersk Line and other APMM Business Units (as appropriate) for incidents that are assigned to the WSM team and/or cannot
