Original job description
Transdev Canada is hiring an IT Support Specialist in our Calgary office
Technology keeps our people connected and our operations moving. Transdev Canada is looking for an IT Support Specialist to provide hands-on technical support to our teams across Western Canada.
Supporting multiple sites, you will troubleshoot day-to-day issues, deploy and maintain devices, and help employees use our systems confidently and securely. You will work closely with a geographically distributed IT team, operational leaders and external providers to deliver reliable support in a busy transportation environment.
This role would suit someone who enjoys solving problems, takes ownership of requests and can explain technical information clearly to people with different levels of IT knowledge.
Technical support and service delivery
Transdev is an international leader in mobility at the service of communities. We design and operate public transport networks - buses, coaches, trams, trains, shared bikes, ferries, and more - to empower freedom to move everyday thanks to safe, reliable and innovative solutions that serve the common good.
Because we are people serving people, our 100,000 employees have a positive impact on people and society. It is by taking care of them that we empower people to move forward.
