Whitgift is a leading independent day and boarding school for boys, with approximately 1525 pupils including over one hundred boarding pupils and flexi boarding pupils. It is set in an attractive 48-acre parkland site in South Croydon enjoying excellent links to London, Surrey and the south coast.
With a reputation for holistic endeavour, Whitgift enjoys an unparalleled reputation for delivering a genuine combination of academic excellence and all-round achievement. The co-curricular programme – which provides every one of its students with an exceptional range of clubs and societies across academic departments and beyond – was recognised by ISI in our recent inspection at the end of the Lent Term 2025 as a “significant strength”. We believe in breadth and depth of opportunity, high aspiration, and a “can-do” and engaged attitude: key ingredients for preparing the young people in our care brilliantly for the rest of their lives.
We are seeking to appoint a Desktop Support Engineer who will provide 1st and 2nd line desktop support for staff and students across Whitgift. A successful candidate will have strong working knowledge of, but not limited to; Azure Active Directory, Microsoft 365, Microsoft Office, SharePoint Online and Windows 11, along with excellent customer service skills, organisation and problem-solving skills and the ability to work with people of all ages within an educational setting.
We welcome applications from all sectors of our community as we aspire to attract staff that match the social and cultural diversity of our student intake.
