Description

Job Opportunity: MSP IT Director

We're looking for a seasoned MSP IT Director to be the heartbeat of this transformation. You'll be the senior -most technical leader onsite, guiding strategy, solving complex problems, and building trust with executive stakeholders. You won't just manage systems-you'll shape the future of how this organization thinks about technology.

What You'll Be Doing

Architecting the Future You'll lead the design and implementation of modern infrastructure-from LAN/WAN networks and firewalls to Microsoft 365, Citrix, and virtual desktops. You'll be the go-to expert for escalations, solution design, and security posture.

Running the Show Day-to-day operations will be in your hands. You'll manage service tickets, mentor onsite techs, and ensure SLA compliance.

Building Relationships That Matter You'll sit at the table with the client's executive leadership, translating tech into strategy and vision. You'll lead planning sessions, communicate risks and opportunities, and become a trusted advisor in every sense of the word.

What Makes You Right for This Role

You've spent 10-15+ years in IT support, systems engineering, or field services-ideally in MSP or healthcare.

You've led teams, mentored talent, and handled senior -level escalations with confidence.

You're fluent in:

Windows Server & Active Directory

Microsoft 365 & Azure

Networking (firewalls, VLANs, wireless)

Endpoint management, VoIP, and Citrix

Security frameworks and infrastructure architecture

You hold certifications like CCNA/CCNP, MCSE/Azure Admin, and maybe even PMP or ITIL.

You're a communicator, a strategist, and a hands-on problem solver.

You thrive in high-visibility environments and love turning chaos into clarity.

Why This Role Matters

This isn't just another IT job. It's a chance to lead transformation from the inside out, embedded within a client that's counting on you to elevate their technology and their trust in it. You'll be part of a mission that touches lives-and you'll have the autonomy, support, and visibility to make a real impact.
