Working with our distributed team across the UK, you'll handle enquiries with empathy and efficiency, knowing that your patience might be the difference between someone giving up on technology or discovering new freedom. You'll collaborate with our Service Delivery team to ensure every person gets the right support at the right time.

We need someone who combines natural warmth with practical problem-solving, who finds satisfaction in small victories, and who understands that behind every technical query is a person seeking independence. 

In return, you'll gain skills in assistive technology, work flexibly with a supportive team, and go home knowing you've genuinely improved lives. This is meaningful work with tangible impact.
