Supporting acquisitions and ensuring systems and processes align effectively
Remaining hands-on across support and infrastructure where required
Managing major incidents and driving resolution
Providing clear IT reporting, risks and performance updates to senior leadership
Managing IT spend and supporting investment decisions 
Background and Experience:

Experience in an IT Manager or senior IT role
Experience managing or supporting junior IT team members
Strong understanding of IT service delivery and infrastructure
Experience working with outsourced IT providers or MSPs
