Description

This is a unique opportunity to shape and expand a newly formed IT Shared Services function. The IT Shared Services Manager will lead a small but growing team that currently includes a Business Analyst and an Enterprise Platform Support resource. Working closely with the VP of IT, the Manager will define the team’s direction, scope, and responsibilities while also serving as a hands-on Project Manager for priority initiatives. The Shared Services team will continue to grow across all disciplines (project management, quality assurance, business analysis, and enterprise platform support) providing the Manager with the opportunity to build a high-performing, cross-functional group from the ground up. The IT organization as a whole is small but expanding, offering significant opportunity for impact and influence.
