Director of Technology 

Our client is looking for a hands-on IT leader to take ownership of a growing, largely cloud-based technology environment.

What You'll Do:

  • Administer and manage a predominantly Azure-based cloud environment, including CRM and student information systems
  • Oversee Active Directory, a VOIP phone system, and organization-wide print and copier infrastructure
  • Manage centralized physical security systems, including alarms and cameras
  • Support a learning management system and other smaller technology platforms
  • Partner with the COO and a team of 4 to keep IT operations running smoothly across a growing organization

What Gets You the Job:

  • Hands-on experience administering a cloud-based environment
  • Strong working knowledge of Azure and Active Directory
