Partou UK is on an exciting growth journey. Formed through the merger of Just Childcare (acquired in 2021) and All About Children (acquired in 2022), we’re set to become one of the largest childcare providers in the UK. We’re part of the global Partou group – a leading childcare provider with over 1,000 nurseries worldwide, supporting 75,000+ children and employing 11,000+ passionate team members.

As we continue to grow our UK presence through new locations, acquisitions, and innovation, we’re investing heavily in our people, our systems, and our future. This is a fantastic time to join us and play a key role in shaping the future of our IT services across the UK.

As our IT Support Technician, you’ll be part of a small but dynamic IT team providing first‑line support to nurseries and central support colleagues via our helpdesk. You’ll also help maintain and improve our IT infrastructure, support project delivery, and ensure our systems run smoothly and efficiently as we scale. This is a varied role where no two days are the same – from troubleshooting Wi‑Fi issues to installing new equipment, liaising with suppliers, and supporting the rollout of new technologies.

• Providing first-line IT support via phone, remote access, and occasional site visits
• Maintaining reliable Wi‑Fi and communications across all nurseries
• Setting up and maintaining hardware, software, user accounts, and antivirus
• Supporting management information and finance systems
• Assisting in IT projects alongside the ICT Director and senior technician
• Managing relationships with external suppliers for repairs and maintenance
• Keeping accurate asset registers and software licence records
• Providing basic user training and creating simple guidance notes
• Ensuring compliance with Health & Safety, GDPR, and data security policies

• Helpdesk tickets resolved within agreed SLAs
• Positive feedback from colleagues on IT support
• A well‑maintained and reliable IT infrastructure
• Smooth delivery of IT projects on time and within budget
• Strong supplier relationships that add value to the IT estate

We’re looking for someone who’s both technical and personable, with a genuine passion for IT and problem‑solving. You’ll be a proactive team player, able to adapt quickly and deliver great service.

• A degree (or equivalent) in a computing‑related subject
• Previous experience in an IT support environment
• Knowledge of Microsoft operating systems, Office, Exchange, and networking protocols
• Understanding of VPN, Terminal Services, SQL Server, and legacy systems
• Experience with multi‑site telecoms and managing third‑party suppliers
• Strong troubleshooting, communication, and project delivery skills
• A full driving licence and willingness to travel occasionally

• Be part of a growing organisation with ambitious plans
• Make a real impact on how our IT systems support thousands of staff and children
• Join a supportive, friendly team who value your development and ideas
