IT Service Delivery Analyst

The IT Service Delivery Analyst is an advocate for Heidrick users, whose primary objective is helping all Heidrick users be more efficient and productive.

This is achieved by focusing on two key areas of responsibilities: The first is to be the primary escalation point, providing both in-person and remote technical support to Heidrick users, including troubleshooting complex issues, maintaining clear process documentation, and ensuring timely resolution of incidents to support business continuity. Additionally, the analyst will contribute to strategic IT initiatives, enhancing service delivery and documentation.

The second responsibility is to develop specialized expertise based on the needs of the company and the individual’s skillsets, and become a Subject Matter Expert (SME) in one or more of the following areas with the goal of improving operational efficiency and user experience:

• Windows & O365
• Predictive Analytics
• Artificial Intelligence (AI)
• Cloud
• Security
• MacOS
• Deployment (SCCM/Intune)

As a SME, the IT Service Delivery Analyst will serve as the escalation point for specialized issues, and will be primarily responsible for creating, maintaining, and sharing clear process documentation. The analyst will also need to be curious and propose improvements to optimize support efficiency and effectiveness. Approximately 35% of their time will be dedicated to this area.
