IT Support Lead and Technical Team Lead driving reliable, scalable enterprise IT operations.
South AfricaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven IT leader with 9+ years in IT operations, service desk management, cloud infrastructure, and systems development. I stabilize critical environments, lead technical teams, and transform underperforming systems into high-performing business assets.
My technical background spans Azure, AWS, Office 365, SQL/Oracle, Python, SharePoint, and automation tooling, and I hold a Diploma in Information Technology plus Microsoft certifications (MCSA, MCSE, MCP). I’ve delivered measurable improvements — faster deployments, higher uptime, reduced resolution times, and stronger user engagement.
I thrive on mentoring teams, documenting processes, and building scalable solutions that align IT with business goals. I’m aiming for leadership roles where I can scale operations, improve service delivery, and coach the next generation of engineers.
