# Information Technology Manager

- **Company:** TechNET IT Recruitment
- **Location:** Oxford, UK (Remote available)
- **Experience:** Expert
- **Salary:** £60,000.0
- **Contract:** Permanent contract
- **Skills:** Software as a Service, Password Management, Web Application Security, Cloud Platform System, Information Technology

## About the Role

* Proven experience as an IT Manager, Senior IT Manager, or IT Lead
 * Strong grounding in infrastructure, cloud and SaaS ecosystems
 * Experience managing MSPs and external vendors
 * Exposure to regulated or audited environments (ISO, Cyber Essentials or similar)
 * Comfortable reporting into executive leadership and translating technical into business language
 * Proactive, commercially aware, and improvement-focused

## Description

We're supporting an established, values-led organisation in Oxford that is looking to appoint a strategic IT Manager to take ownership of its technology function.

This is a predominantly remote role (typically c.1 day per week in Oxford, flexibility for candidates further afield attending fortnightly).

The Opportunity

This is a broad, organisation-wide position combining IT strategy, MSP governance, cybersecurity oversight, and systems improvement.

You will

 * Own and evolve the IT roadmap (a draft is already in place)
 * Lead application selection and technology decision-making
 * Oversee a Managed Service Provider (first & second line outsourced)
 * Review and assess MSP performance and future delivery model
 * Drive cybersecurity governance (ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials Plus environment)
 * Lead audit readiness and compliance best practice
 * Oversee infrastructure, hybrid/cloud environments and SaaS estate
 * Deliver key 12-month initiatives including hosting/cloud review, file-sharing platform review, web security tooling and password management improvements

This is not a large enterprise IT leadership role. It's ideal for someone who enjoys owning IT within a 70-person organisation and shaping its future direction.
