Overview:

Our client is seeking a versatile and hands-on IT Manager to oversee all aspects of our technology operations. This role leads the IT function end-to-end—strategic planning, daily support, infrastructure management, security, vendor coordination, and project execution. As a small-team environment, this position requires someone who can both set direction and roll up their sleeves to get the work done.

Key Responsibilities:

• Own the overall IT strategy, planning, and day-to-day operations for the organization.
• Provide Tier 1–3 support across end-user devices, applications, networks, and systems.
• Manage and maintain servers, network infrastructure, cloud services, and backups.
• Administer core systems such as Microsoft 365, Active Directory, and endpoint management tools.
• Oversee cybersecurity practices, including patching, monitoring, threat response, and policy upkeep.
• Lead IT projects such as hardware refreshes, system upgrades, migrations, and process improvements.
• Manage vendor relationships, contracts, and procurement for hardware, software, and services.
• Create and maintain IT documentation, SOPs, inventories, and lifecycle plans.
• Monitor system health, performance, and availability to ensure a stable technology environment.
• Provide guidance, training, and support to users to enhance technology adoption and productivity.

Qualifications:

• 5+ years of progressive IT experience with broad system, network, and support exposure.
• Strong knowledge of Windows environments, Microsoft 365, networking fundamentals, and virtualization.
• Experience with cloud platforms (Azure/AWS), backup solutions, and security tools.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities, troubleshoot complex issues, and work independently.
• Excellent communication and customer-service skills; comfortable supporting all levels of the organization.
• Prior experience in a small-team or “wear many hats” environment preferred.

Why This Role:

You’ll have full ownership of the IT function, autonomy to improve and modernize systems, and the opportunity to shape how technology supports the business. Ideal for someone who enjoys variety, problem-solving, and being both the strategist and the hands-on expert.

No 3rd parties.
