This role also supports a hybrid workforce, including approximately 30 local users, and will occasionally include executive-level support.

User Lifecycle Management:

  • Execute onboarding and offboarding tasks, including account creation/deactivation, permission management, and equipment provisioning.
  • Coordinate shipping, imaging, and setup of laptops and accessories for new hires.
  • Track and recover IT assets during offboarding processes.

Documentation and Reporting:

  • Log all support actions in the ticketing system, even for walk-ups or phone-based support.
  • Follow established SOPs and contribute to documentation improvements.

Hybrid Work Expectations:

  • Be present onsite at least 3 days per week, unless business needs require additional in-person support.
  • Perform remote support efficiently during offsite days, maintaining response time and communication standards.

Executive and Local User Support:

  • Provide elevated support to approximately 30 onsite users, including periodic executive-level assistance.
  • Ensure courteous, professional handling of sensitive and high-priority requests.

Growth and Adaptation:

  • Embrace a dynamic IT environment shaped by acquisitions and organizational expansion.
  • Quickly adapt to varying processes across divisions, helping users through transitional phases.
  • Remain flexible and open to evolving responsibilities as the business scales.
