IT Systems and Security Administrator

Job Description

We are seeking an IT Systems and Security Administrator to support our rapidly expanding information technology infrastructure.

This role is primarily internally facing supporting employees with the occasional need to interact with outside vendors.

The ideal candidate is comfortable in an environment that is fast-paced and ever-changing. The role itself is a hybrid between Helpdesk, Cybersecurity and a Systems Administrator who configures, tests, trains and supports business-related IT requirements and systems. Leads projects using IT to enable business improvement and perform critical analysis.

Tasks range from password resets and provisioning servers to security audits. Typical activities include Active Directory user administration, Microsoft Exchange operations, file sharing access, printer management and support as well as technical support troubleshooting.
