About Family Doctor

Family Doctor is a GP-owned network operating across most states and territories, with a Support Office in Hawthorn East. IT support has been brought back in-house to raise service quality and responsiveness for clinics and the support office.

What you'll do:

• Provide first-contact technical support via helpdesk, email, phone, and in-person, ensuring all tickets are logged and progressed to resolution or timely escalation.
• Own incident triage, prioritisation, and follow-through to meet SLAs and deliver a consistently positive customer experience.
• Troubleshoot Windows desktops, laptops, printers, and common clinic peripherals; handle new user setup, password resets, MFA, and basic access issues.
• Support Microsoft 365 (Outlook, Teams, OneDrive, SharePoint) and core services (Entra ID/AD, group membership, mailbox basics) at a Level 1 scope.
• Assist with Autotask-based ticketing, documentation updates, and accurate time/notes for clear handovers and reporting.
• Perform basic network checks on Unifi environments (identify connectivity issues, SSID/client basics, simple switch/AP observations) and escalate when required.
• Help manage clinic devices: imaging, patching, antivirus, asset tagging, warranty checks, and secure disposal workflows.
• Contribute to standard operating procedures and knowledge articles to improve first-contact resolution over time.
• Participate in rostered after hours coverage.

About you:

• Strong customer service focus and clear, friendly communication with non-technical users.
• Practical troubleshooting mindset; comfortable narrowing issues and testing hypotheses under time pressure.
• High attention to detail, reliable ticket hygiene, and willingness to follow standards and meet deadlines.
• Great time management skills, able to prioritise tasks and multi task effectively.
• Self-starter who asks good questions, learns fast, and knows when to escalate.
• Valid driver's licence; able to visit clinics when needed.

Hands-on skills we value:

• 1–2+ years in an IT support or service desk role (internships, MSP exposure, or clinic/hospital environment experiences are great).
• Windows 10/11 support, basic device imaging, driver installs, printer queues, and profile issues.
• Microsoft 365 user support: Outlook profile issues, shared mailbox access, Teams calling basics, OneDrive sync fixes, SharePoint permissions basics.
• Helpdesk platforms (Autotask preferred) for ticketing, time entry, and SLA awareness.
• Networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP) and basic Unifi familiarity for first-line triage.
• Basic Active Directory/Entra ID tasks: account creation, group adds, password resets, MFA assistance.
• Endpoint security basics: AV status, Windows Update, BitLocker awareness.

Nice to have:

• Understanding MDM systems like intune or Manage Engine MDM.
• Experience with remote tools, RMM/N-Able style platforms, or simple PowerShell for repeatable tasks.
• Awareness of backup systems and how to escalate warnings/failures appropriately.

What you'll get:

• Real responsibility in a supportive team that mentors you to grow your scope and autonomy.
• A mission-driven environment focused on keeping clinics operating safely and efficiently for patient care.
• Remuneration aligned to skills and experience, with clear progression pathways.
