ABOUT THE ROLE

The Lead IT Support Specialist is responsible for overseeing and guiding the IT support function while remaining hands-on with technical issues and projects.

You'll monitor and maintain IT infrastructure, provide mentorship and leadership to the IT support team, and partner with leadership to align IT operations with business needs.

We're all about that in-person vibe—this role is 100% on-site! If you're excited to work side-by-side with our team (or are ready to make the move), then you're a perfect fit. If not, we kindly ask you to hold off on applying. Thanks for understanding and happy job hunting!
