• Executing cybersecurity controls and standards (endpoint security, MFA, patching, IR)
• Managing IT vendors, MSPs, ISPs, software licensing, and system integrators
• Owning IT operational budgets, asset management, and lifecycle planning
• Leading execution of IT projects
• Supporting audits, customer security reviews, and compliance activities
