Interested to hear why someone with a technical background in supporting SCCM, SCSM, Exchange, OCS, LAMP, IIS, Azure, AWS, Windows Server and AD, AV, SQL (and more) would be paid 12% less than someone who writes marketing emails (https://www.ukclimbing.com/forums/ukc/bmc_digital_marketing_coordinator-747263)
I don’t think they are after someone with bags of experience or highly skilled if they are offering 22k. You wouldn’t even get a computer science graduate with zero experience for that money.
I'd doubt that a computer science graduate wouldn't be looking at "IT Support Assistant" roles anyway.
Its a very poor advert, it says almost nothing about what the job entails!
...and if the benefits are excellent, why not spell them out?
Did you go to the linked job spec?

I didn't get that from the job spec. It looks like a spec written for an enthusiastic college or school-leaver with a working knowledge of Windows, to do general basic IT support tasks.
They're not going to get anyone more experience than that, with the salary, either way!
