The Director, Enterprise IT Support is a people-first leadership role responsible for building, leading, and continuously improving a high-performing IT support organization. This role delivers value through team development, operational discipline, and a structured service delivery model — not as a hands-on technical expert. The Director owns the design and execution of the tiered support model (Tier 0–Tier 2) and ensures consistent, high-quality service delivery across a broad enterprise IT environment, operating in close partnership with the IT PMO, GRC, and Security teams.

PRIMARY DUTIES:

People Leadership & Team Development: Lead, coach, and develop IT support leaders and senior engineers. Establish performance expectations, accountability structures, and career pathways. Build a culture focused on ownership, service quality, and continuous improvement.
Service Delivery & Operations: Own and mature the enterprise IT service delivery model including SLAs, escalation, and performance reporting. Ensure consistent execution of incident, request, problem, and change management processes.
Tiered Support Model Ownership: Design and continuously improve the Tier 0 (self-service), Tier 1 (service desk), and Tier 2 (technical escalation) model. Increase automation and self-service adoption to reduce ticket volume.
Technology Operations Oversight: Provide governance-level leadership across infrastructure, endpoint, identity, ITSM platforms, M365, and business application support. This is a leadership role, not a hands-on technical position.
Cross-Functional Alignment: Partner with IT PMO for operational readiness; align with GRC for compliance and audit adherence; coordinate with Security for incident response integration; ensure operations align with enterprise IT strategy.
Vendor & Financial Management: Manage key vendor relationships and performance outcomes. Own and manage an IT operations budget of approximately $5M. Drive cost optimization and efficient resource utilization.

Strategic & Operational Thinking: Translate IT strategy into execution with measurable outcomes

Cross-Functional Collaboration: PMO, GRC, Security, Finance, and HR alignment

Communication & Executive Presence: Fluency with technical teams and business stakeholders

Financial & Vendor Management: Budget ownership, vendor accountability, cost optimization
