  Premium Service Desk Analyst
  London

  As a Barclays Premium Service Desk Analyst, you will provide remote first and second line desktop support to approximately 5500 employees globally, ranging from simple 'how to', up through deep application troubleshooting, remote access, mobile BYOD, VDI, Citrix and more. You will join a team tasked to ensure the smooth operation of desktop systems and applications, will quickly triage and resolve incidents, and will ensure an exceptional level of customer service to the Business while meeting service-level targets.

  Barclays is one of the world's largest and most respected financial institutions, with 329 years of success, quality and innovation behind us. We offer careers that provide endless opportunity – helping millions of individuals and businesses thrive, and creating financial and digital solutions that the world now takes for granted.

  At Barclays, we offer a hybrid working experience that blends the positives of working alongside colleagues at our onsite locations, together with working from home. We have a structured approach where colleagues work at an onsite location on fixed, ‘anchor’, days of the week, for a minimum of two days a week or more, as set by the business area (or nearest equivalent if working part-time hours). Please discuss the working pattern requirements for the role you are applying for with the hiring manager. Please note that as we continue to embed our hybrid working environment, we remain in a test and learn phase, which means that working arrangements may be subject to change on reasonable notice to ensure we meet the needs of our business.

  Hybrid Working
  We are currently in the early stages of implementing a hybrid working environment, which means that many colleagues spend part of their working hours at home and part in the office, depending on the nature of the role they are in. We’re flexible on how this works and it may continue to change and evolve. Depending on your team, typically this means that colleagues spend a minimum of between 20% to 60% of their time in the office, which could be over a week, a month or a quarter. However, some colleagues may choose to spend more time in the office over a typical period than their role type requires. We also have a flexible working process where, subject to business needs, all colleagues globally are able to request work patterns to reflect their personal circumstances
  Please discuss the detail of the working pattern options for the role with the hiring manager.
