Job offered: ILT Customer Support (principally Moodle) Lead

Type: Full-time
Location: Watford, Hertfordshire

Global Vocational Skills is now looking for a talented individual to join our company as the ILT Customer Support Lead.  This role will require UK travel and applicants must hold a full UK/European driving license. Our customers will mainly be UK FE Colleges hosting the e-learning resources we create (delivered as SCORM packages) in their own Moodle sites.  The size and scope of these resources, as well as the variations in technical expertise within the College sector, mean we need someone to streamline (and troubleshoot) the technical installation process and guide College teams on usage.  The ideal candidate will be equally at ease with the intricacies of Moodle, with the technical side of running and installing web services (IIS, Apache, etc), and with the support side of maintaining excellent customer relations. 


Salary : £26-30K
