Experience supporting SaaS based VoIP solutions, including user support and basic troubleshooting.
Prior experience working within a Managed Service Provider (MSP) or multi client support environment.

What it would be nice to have:
Intermediate to advanced administration of Mac Operating Systems
PowerShell scripting experience.
