Edward Perrin

Experienced IT service desk support engineer with Triple Distinctions NVQ level 3 IT qualification.I thoroughly enjoy working in an IT environment and service desk support helping clients internally and externally.

I am a hard-working, trustworthy person and I work well in a team or independently on my own initiative.

I am willing to learn, look forward to hard work and I will thrive at a challenge.

Throughout my college level 3 in IT, I consistently enjoyed learning new IT skills, it quickly became a hobby as well as a formal education. This is highlighted in the fact that I gained a Triple Distinction, something that I am very proud of and my tutors were very complimentary about.

I was actively involved in the Royal Air Force Air Cadets from September 2013- April 2016.

This was a voluntary position, and I learned many different skills.
