Who We Are

Shelburne Farms is an education nonprofit on a mission to inspire and cultivate learning for a sustainable future.

We realize our mission by integrating three key areas of activity: our programs, place, and products.

Who We’re Looking for

Shelburne Farms is seeking a resourceful and service-minded IT Support Manager to provide IT systems and training support for staff, volunteers, and campus operations. This position is the sole IT support provider onsite, reporting to the Chief Operations Officer, and working closely in partnership with the farm’s external Managed Service Provider (MSP) support.

As a mission-driven organization with a large, distributed campus and a diverse workforce, we rely on technology to advance our work every day. This role is the frontline of that effort, ensuring our people have the tools and support they need to do their jobs effectively, including the software used for each enterprise, such as hospitality, mail order, retail, donor management, dining, etc.

What You'll Do

You'll serve as the primary point of contact for technology support across our campus, responding to requests from staff at all levels of technical ability.

Day-to-day responsibilities include:

• Diagnosing and resolving hardware, software, and connectivity issues on desktops, laptops, mobile devices, and peripherals

• Setting up and supporting AV equipment for meetings, trainings, and events in buildings across the entire campus

• Onboarding new employees and volunteers, including account creation, device setup, and orientation to systems

• Managing and troubleshooting IT operating systems support, including identifying complex issues requiring assistance from external IT consultants or vendors as appropriate

• Supporting a range of platforms including Windows, macOS, Google Workplace and Microsoft 365, etc.

• Maintaining accurate records of assets, configurations, and service history

• Network troubleshooting (Wi-Fi connectivity, VPN, printer access) across multiple buildings

• Documenting processes, procedures, trouble shooting and how-to guides for end users

What We're Looking For

The ideal candidate brings technical competence paired with genuine patience and communication skills, someone who can explain a password reset to a first-time computer user with the same clarity and kindness they'd bring to a complex network issue.

• Experience in a help desk, desktop support, or IT support role

• Proficiency with Windows and/or macOS environments and Google Workplace and Microsoft Office and 365

• Familiarity with Active Directory, user account management, and basic networking concepts

• Strong interpersonal and written communication skills

• Comfort working with a variety of user types, including those with limited technical backgrounds

• Ability to manage competing priorities and work calmly under pressure

• A valid driver's license and ability to move between campus buildings as needed

• Experience supporting a multi-faceted organization

Work Location and Travel Requirements

• The role primarily works on-site five days a week. The work schedule includes event support and on-call availability. Occasional remote work to support flexibility is permitted.
