A career in service desk

I’ve worked in helpdesk and service management all my working life - first as a helpdesk agent, and now as a software vendor working with a talented team of software developers and support specialists to create HelpMaster.

I love working with service management people, tech and process, and I love the software design, the consulting and the education that goes into making HelpMaster what it is today.

HelpMaster has taken me around the world - literally, and virtually (everyday!), and the challenge of working with our clients who continually push us to develop and innovate the product that underpins their support services keeps me focussed and keen to keep learning. The future of service management software is so exciting, and with the advancements in AI and machine learning, I get the feeling that the development of HelpMaster has only just begun….

Who do we work with?

HelpMaster has been used by just about every type of business and industry that you can think of. Many of our clients are in the IT sector, facilities management, health-care, managed service providers and many small business of all types.

Our clients are based in many countries, and provide constant feedback and suggestions on how to improve HelpMaster, so as a company, we’re always listening, developing, and releasing new updates regularly.

It’s been a privilege to work with, and learn from some of the biggest companies in the world to implement best-practice service management and use this experience to improve everything we do.

Service Management Mission

Helpdesk and ITSM is our sole focus - its what we do and we’re 100% committed to improving and supporting the software and the solutions we develop.

PRD Software contributes regularly to the ITSM industry and all staff members are well versed in the popular service management best-practice frameworks such as ITIL, KCS, as well as ISO standards for service management. We’re big believers in #Back2ITSM and keeping it real.

We design software for the real world - not for software certification schemes or popular trends, and our sales and client feedback have consistently told us were on the right track.
