  • Provision and manage user access across cloud infrastructure environments, including GCP, AWS, and Azure, ensuring appropriate permissions and secure usage.
  • Purchase, track, and maintain company hardware and software inventory; regularly audit usage and optimize for performance and cost.
  • Manage domain registration, hosting, and key digital infrastructure, coordinating with developers as needed.
  • Develop, implement, and uphold IT and security policies; deliver staff security awareness training.
  • Continuously assess technology needs, proactively recommend improvements, and introduce tools or systems to enhance productivity and resilience.
  • Negotiate and oversee IT vendor contracts, ensuring service quality and cost-efficiency that align with agency goals.

Experience and Skills

  • 5+ years of experience in IT support, systems administration, or technology management, preferably in a small agency or creative environment.
  • Strong organizational, research, and problem-solving skills; exceptional attention to detail and follow-through.
  • Demonstrated experience with SOC2 compliance, including documentation, process improvement, and audit support.
  • Proficiency with Mac environments, SaaS tools, and cloud services.
