The Client Technology Advisor (CTA) is a client-facing technical consultant responsible for the retention, optimization, security, and expansion of existing client environments. This role is primarily technical and focuses on infrastructure, modern workplace technologies, and cybersecurity strategy, while maintaining strong client relationships.

  • Strong knowledge of endpoint hardware, servers, virtualization, and SMB networking
  • Microsoft 365 administration, licensing, and security experience
  • Understanding of cloud infrastructure, SaaS platforms, and remote work technologies
