Senior Technical Support & Enablement Engineer, Edtech
About Securly
Securly is the K–12 market leader in AI-powered student safety and wellness solutions, protecting more than 20 million students across 20,000+ schools globally. Our mission is to create safer, more supportive learning environments by identifying risk earlier, strengthening student wellbeing, and empowering educators with actionable insight.
Across the UK and EMEA, we partner with schools and Multi-Academy Trusts (MATs) and work closely with trusted Value-Added Resellers (VARs) to deliver secure, reliable technology that protects students while enabling effective digital learning.
Our Support team plays a critical role in that mission — ensuring schools and partners can rely on our platform every day.
Role Overview
As a Senior Technical Support & Enablement Engineer (UK/EMEA), you will serve as a frontline technical partner for both schools and VAR partners across the region.
This role is primarily focused on technical support and case ownership, while also supporting deployments and improving how partners implement and support Securly solutions over time.
You will work directly with schools and VAR partners to troubleshoot issues, support implementations, and ensure successful product adoption. In addition to resolving technical issues, you will identify recurring challenges and contribute to improving partner capability and reducing ongoing support demand.
This role has a strong VAR-facing component. You will support reseller technical teams during deployment and ongoing service delivery, while also resolving technical issues directly for schools.
You will own cases end-to-end — from initial intake through final resolution or escalation — managing each ticket with the accountability and structure of a project.
This role will balance a mix of reactive support work and hands-on deployment support, with opportunities to contribute to partner enablement and continuous improvement over time.
Success in this role is measured by resolution quality, SLA adherence, partner confidence, reduction in recurring issues, and consistent customer satisfaction.
