Desktop Support Team Lead

Customer Service · Philippines

Job description

Enshored has been powering growth for disruptive brands and leading companies in the US and Europe since 2014. As part of Inc 5000 fastest-growing companies in the US, our commitment to pushing the extra mile helps our clients reach their business’ optimal growth potential, may it be from the ground up or by innovative transformation.

Our team is composed of hand-picked talented individuals adapted to handle themselves in a balanced environment of smart and hard work while maintaining a dynamic relationship with stakeholders, leaders, and team members. Important decisions revolve around the guidance of our core values, especially when choosing the right people:

  • Grit. We never give up. We don't always know the answer, but we don't give up until we  crack it. Sticking at it makes us stronger.
  • Curiosity. We want to know you, what makes you tick and what it will take to help you grow.
  • Learning. Learning is the key to mobility, growth, and transformation. It's a commitment. We're committed.
  • Grace. The unconditional love for our fellow man. What is this world without love – merely a transactional scorecard of winners and losers. We don't want to reinforce that operating system. We are driving a paradigm shift to an infinite mindset where we start from the knowledge that there is plenty to go around.
  • Honesty & Sincerity. Being true to ourselves. Being honest, being open, trustworthy and truthful. Sincerity provides depth to honesty, as our honesty at times can even betray us, as we all hide behind our deep pain and hurt.
  • Integrity. Integrity is standing up for what we believe is right and living by our highest values.

Our philosophy leads us to invest in the best people we can find, and working side by side, we help them build the career paths they deserve.

Don’t just take our word for it; experience the growth yourself!
