Looking for L1/L1.5 role | MSP | Service Desk | Helpdesk | IT Support

Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out to see if anyone knows of an MSP that’s open to hiring candidates without direct MSP experience. If your company is hiring or you know of any opportunities, I’d really appreciate a referral or recommendation.

I’ve been trying to transition into an MSP or fully remote IT support role, but so far I haven’t been getting interviews or callbacks despite submitting many applications. My most recent roles were as a Technical Support Supervisor and Technical Support Specialist, where I supported enterprise IT operations, troubleshooting, user support, and service management. Unfortunately, my position was affected by a company restructuring.

I’m eager to learn, adapt quickly, and build a long-term career in the MSP space. If anyone has advice, knows of companies willing to train, or can point me in the right direction, I’d be very grateful.

Thank you so much for your time and support!

I can start immediately. I can dm my CV for more details about my experience.

[EST/CST] Remote IT Support | 6 Years in MSP Ops | ABM/Google Workspace/M365 | Windows/macOS | AI Assisted Automation | $25/hr

Hi r/mspjobs community,

My current contract/project is wrapping up, so I’m available from 1 July and looking for my next remote MSP or internal IT support role.

I’m an IT Support professional with 10+ years in IT and 5+ years supporting US-based MSPs and IT teams remotely, including handling 15+ daily tickets across roughly 600 Windows and macOS endpoints. Most of my recent work has been around L1/L2 support, Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Intune, Google Workspace, Okta, Windows, macOS, endpoint support, access issues, ticket flow, and day-to-day client support.

I’ve grown from frontline triage into deeper support work, and I’ve built a reputation for being dependable, calm under pressure, and easy for both clients and internal teams to work with.

I’m very comfortable doing tickets, triage, user issues, escalations, onboarding/offboarding, network printer/peripheral issues, endpoint troubleshooting, documentation, and keeping the queue moving.

Where I add extra value is that I don’t just close tickets and move on. I notice repeat issues, messy handoffs, weak documentation, unclear processes, and places where support can be streamlined.

Recent work has included:

  • Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Intune, SharePoint, Teams, and Google Workspace support
  • SharePoint permissions, external sharing, activity/reporting requests, and access cleanup
  • Entra/AD hybrid cleanup and Entra Connect / AD sync troubleshooting, Intune setup support, endpoint management cleanup, and device admin work
  • Ticket handling, time entries, closure notes, and PSA hygiene
  • Backup/RMM monitoring checks, alert review, and escalation support
  • Documentation, SOPs, KBAs, recovery/restore notes, ticket summaries, and AI-assisted workflow cleanup

Stack I’ve worked with:

  • M365, Entra ID, Intune, Google Workspace, Okta, Active Directory
  • Datto RMM, NinjaOne, Halo, Autotask, Syncro, Zoho Desk, ConnectWise Automate
  • SentinelOne, Bitdefender, Huntress, Proofpoint, Acronis, ThreatLocker, Datto EDR
  • ScreenConnect, AnyDesk, Splashtop, Hudu, IT Glue
  • Addigy and Mosyle for macOS/iOS support
  • TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, Ubiquiti, WiFi troubleshooting
  • PowerShell, Bash, Rewst, Copilot, AI-assisted workflow/documentation

A little about me:

  • Strong client communication and white-glove support mindset
  • Calm troubleshooting with good escalation judgment
  • Comfortable in high-volume MSP/support environments
  • Strong documentation, SOP, and KBA habits
  • Able to support daily operations while helping improve the process behind them
  • Experience in healthcare, fintech, legal, and other compliance-sensitive environments
  • I’m fully 1099-ready with W-8BEN on file, and a US bank account to fit right into your existing payroll system

What I’m looking for:

  • Remote MSP or internal IT support work
  • L1/L2 support, service desk, endpoint support, SupportOps, or junior sysadmin-style work
  • Long-term preferred, but open to overflow support, project help, documentation cleanup, and migration support
  • EST/CST-friendly, including off-hours if needed
  • Rate: $25/hr

If there may be a fit, feel free to DM me. Happy to share my resume or LinkedIn privately.

[Resume Review + Strategy Check] L1/L2 Helpdesk applicant, Based in Canada, 100+ apps, zero callbacks , what am I missing?

Hey everyone, looking for honest feedback on my resume and job search strategy. I have been applying for about 5 months to L1/L2 helpdesk, service desk, and MSP roles in the GTA with no callbacks so far. Posting anonymously but happy to answer questions.

Background

Durham College graduate, 3-year Advanced Diploma in Computer Programming and Analysis (March 2025), CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701), TryHackMe SOC Level 1, and 2+ year of customer-facing job. No production IT experience yet.

Four home labs documented on GitHub with screenshots and resolution steps: Active Directory (Windows Server 2022, DNS, DHCP, GPO), Microsoft Entra ID (M365, MFA, IAM), ServiceNow ITSM (full ticket lifecycles, knowledge base articles), and TryHackMe SOC Level 1 (Splunk, Wireshark). Each lab was roughly one month of focused work.

Strategy so far

Applying primarily to L1/L2 helpdesk, MSP, and service desk roles in the GTA, tailoring each resume to the specific JD with different lab ordering and skills emphasis. GitHub links on every resume so work is verifiable. Also applying to some security-adjacent roles as upside volume bets. Some recruiter outreach via email for roles with named hiring contacts. No production environment experience is my biggest honest gap.

What I am worried about

  1. Security+ flight risk perception. I came across Reddit comments saying Security+ on a helpdesk resume signals "I am leaving the moment I get a security role," making employers hesitant to onboard you. I have been adding a loyalty signal to the summary to counter this. Is that enough, or should I drop Security+ from helpdesk-targeted resumes entirely?
  2. Lab duration. Each lab was about one month. I list them as single-month date stamps rather than ongoing to stay honest. Does that read as weak?
  3. Certs stack. Currently have Security+ and ServiceNow ITSM. ITIL Foundation keeps appearing as a required cert. Is that the next one to chase, or is CompTIA A+ or Network+ better for pure helpdesk credibility?
  4. Volume vs targeting. Better to blast a base resume to 200+ roles or tailor each one? Currently doing a mix.

Happy to hear anything including harsh feedback. Thanks.

Hiring: Senior Engineer Who Wants to Run the Show (Eventually)

Location: Phoenix, AZ — mostly remote, ~2 days/week in the field
Hours: Monday to Friday, 9 to 5, with occasional scheduled after-hours work for migrations, on call expectation is limited as senior backup.
Type: Full-Time W2 w/ benefits
Reports to: Owner (me)

I recently bought a small, profitable Phoenix MSP. My background is sales and ops, not technical. I'm hiring the person who'll grow into running the technical side of the business while I move into the CEO and growth seat. My team has deep experience with our current client base's needs (mostly on-prem server environments), but we need someone who can help us service businesses focused on the cloud.

What you do

You own the complex work. M365 migrations, server replacements, network refreshes, security stack deployments, new client onboardings. You scope it, you build it, you deploy it, and you're the one who knows it inside out afterward.

No handing projects off to the next tier. No inheriting someone else's half-finished job. You own the whole stack, start to finish.

You make the architectural calls. You decide what tools we use. You handle the escalations nobody else can. And because we're small, you pitch in on frontline tickets too. Everyone does, until we grow enough to add helpdesk. That part eases over time.

Who you are

You see a problem and your first instinct is to solve it, then document it so the next person can handle it without you. You finish what you start. You don't need to be managed.

You can run a complex migration on Monday and help carry workstations during an office move on Tuesday and not think either one is beneath you.

You tell people the truth, that includes clients, teammates, and me. You'd rather have the hard conversation early than the easy one late.

You've got 7 to 10 years in IT or MSP work, with real project ownership under your belt. You know M365, Entra ID, Azure, networking, Windows Server, backup and DR, and endpoint security. You don't have to be the best at all of them, but you should be strong at most.

You want to grow into a leader. Not someday in theory, but as the actual plan.

Why you'd want this job

You won't walk in blind. Our outgoing senior engineer has 20+ years with these clients and is staying on specifically to train his replacement. You get a structured, paid overlap with the person who owns this work now. Not sink-or-swim.

The path is real. Senior engineer now, technical lead or director of service delivery in 2 to 3 years, with comp and eventually equity or profit-share to match. The growth isn't recruiting fluff. It's the reason I'm hiring you.

You'll own your work and see it through. For a lot of senior engineers, that end-to-end ownership is the part that's been missing. The difference between doing a piece of the job and solving the whole problem.

Mostly work from home. Real hours. A small team where what you do is visible and matters.

Compensation

$90,000 to $110,000 base depending on experience, plus benefits: QSEHRA health reimbursement, 401(k) with 4% match, 15 days PTO plus holidays, and a $3,500/year certification budget. Comp grows as you take on more.

Who should not apply

Don't apply if "I'm a senior, I don't do tickets" is your reaction to the frontline part. Don't apply if you need someone to tell you what to work on every morning. Don't apply if you're not Phoenix-based. This role needs you local and in the field a couple days a week.

How to apply

Email careers@bitwits.com with:

Your resume. A few sentences on a complex project you owned end to end — what made it hard and how you handled it. And what appeals to you about growing into a technical leadership role at a small business, plus what makes you cautious about it.

Hiring: We're Hiring a Dispatcher (And No, We're Not Replacing You With a Bot)

Location: Remote, US-based
Hours: Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM Pacific, includes lunch
Type: Full-Time W2 w/ benefits
Reports to: Service Manager

I'm posting this on behalf of one of my clients. I work as their fractional COO and we're scaling their MSP operations. This is a real job with a real team.

We run a $3M MSP serving SMBs. Our dispatcher just left. We're hiring a replacement. We will not automate this job away. Customers talk to a real person here, not a bot.

What you do

You manage incoming requests in ConnectWise. You decide what's urgent. You assign work to the right tech. You keep our six technicians from drowning.

You balance workloads so nobody burns out. You talk to customers when problems hit. You manage on-site appointments. You juggle priorities when things shift. You catch typos and missing information before they blow up. You collaborate with technicians and leadership to find better ways to work.

The last dispatcher struggled with attention to detail and balancing work fairly. You won't have these problems.

Who you are

You pay attention. Details matter to you. You understand IT enough to triage smart. You communicate clearly in writing and conversation. You stay calm when multiple things happen at once.

You've worked 1-2 years in an MSP or similar ops role. If you don't have that background, you're just genuinely good at the stuff above.

You're curious about tech. You don't fear AI. You're not a zealot either. You want to see what works and what doesn't. You'll help us decide which tools actually help.

ConnectWise experience is a bonus. Customer service background is a bonus. Remote work experience is a bonus. Your character matters most.

Why you'd want this job

Your work directly impacts customer satisfaction and team morale. People see what you do and appreciate it. We invest in tools to support you, not replace you. We experiment with AI and automation to make your day easier, and you get a say in what we try. We're a $3M company growing the right way. You work real hours with a real lunch break. No on-call. You work remote from anywhere in the US.

Compensation

We pay based on your experience and qualifications. Service Leadership market data guides our offers. The median dispatcher salary is $53,750 according to SLI.

Who should not apply

Don't apply if you sweat small stuff but miss the big picture. Don't apply if you clock in and check out. Don't apply if you reject useful technology. Don't apply if you think automation equals job insecurity.

How to apply

Send me a DM:

Your background, especially MSP or tech ops experience
Why you're interested
Your honest take on AI in the workplace. Don't tell us what you think we want to hear.

We're hiring soon. Move fast.

Questions. Ask away. We're real people.
