  • Implement measurable IT KPIs including uptime, service levels, and cost efficiency
  • Manage IT budget and optimize vendor and software spend
  • Lead and develop an internal IT team (~10 professionals)
  • Oversee managed service providers and third-party technology partners
What Success Looks Like
  • Reliable, secure IT operations across a distributed enterprise
  • Standardized systems and governance adopted across all business units
  • Strong service responsiveness and high end-user satisfaction
  • Efficient and repeatable post-acquisition technology integrations
  • Improved visibility and control of technology spend
  • Strengthened cybersecurity posture and operational resilience
Qualifications

  • Experience supporting distributed operations with centralized IT services
  • Strong technical foundation across infrastructure, networking, cloud, and cybersecurity
  • Deep experience with Microsoft Azure architecture and governance
