Find my it support technician

Comparison uses the local salary estimate published by Ramp Remote and this role’s starting service price. The figures have different inclusions. Experience, benefits, taxes and one-off costs may vary. Your quote confirms the total.

Find the right person for the work.

What good looks like

Agree how requests reach the technician and what a good result looks like. Useful measures include tickets resolved within the timeframes you set, new starters set up before their first day and an accurate device and licence list.

Define which fixes the technician can make alone, what needs your approval and when to escalate to your IT lead or managed service provider.

Assess the right fit

Our catalogue candidates are reviewed and interviewed by our team.

Discuss experience with your environment, such as Microsoft 365, device management and ticketing tools. Ask the candidate to explain how they would troubleshoot a user who cannot sign in, handle an urgent request from a senior colleague and document a recurring fix.

Agree a short technical exercise with our team, using a sample ticket queue or fictional information, and ask for a walkthrough of past work. Give least-privilege access, only what the role needs, and make sure changes to admin settings follow your review process.

The starting price is a guide for a full-time hire in the Philippines. Your quote confirms the total for your chosen person, agreed hours and service arrangements.

  • Experience and scope: specialist skills, seniority and the responsibilities you need affect the price.
  • Hours and coverage: agree the working week, time-zone overlap and any evening or weekend needs.
  • What is included: ask for the breakdown of employment costs, our service, equipment and any one-off charges, with currency and applicable taxes stated.

We confirm these details before you commit. The starting price is not a fixed quote for every candidate.

Timing depends on the brief, candidate availability, interviews and any notice period. We will agree the next update and a target start date with you once those details are clear. If the right person is not currently available, we can recruit to your brief.

  1. Set the access: agree admin permissions, the ticket process and the escalation path, starting with the least access the role needs.
  2. Shadow, then own: work through sample requests together, then hand over a defined set of ticket types.
  3. Review the first weeks: check resolution quality and documentation, decide which permissions should widen or narrow, then agree the ongoing cadence.

You can discuss a role without committing to a hire. Before proceeding, review your written quote and agreement for payment timing, currency and taxes, notice requirements, the support included and what happens if the hire is not the right fit.

We will confirm replacement arrangements and any conditions in your agreement before you proceed.
