The opportunity:

  • Build and scale autonomous endpoint management using Intune, remediation scripts, and telemetry-driven health monitoring.
  • Establish platform engineering practices across endpoint, identity, and workplace services to enable reusable, scalable solutions.
  • Develop API-driven, event-based automation across identity, device lifecycle, and access management workflows.
  • Implement telemetry, observability, and signal-based automation for proactive issue detection, self-healing, and remediation.
  • Partner with Security to embed governance, compliance, and risk controls into automated workflows and digital workplace platforms.
  • Drive zero-touch provisioning and lifecycle management for devices and user access.
  • Lead change management, reskilling, and adoption efforts for impacted IT staff and business stakeholders.
  • Build and lead a small, outcome-driven team.

What you’ll bring

  • 10+ years of IT experience, including 4+ years leading a customer support help desk or end user support function.
  • Proven track record leading large-scale IT transformation initiatives, including. implementing AI and automation in IT operations.
  • Deep expertise in endpoint management (e.g., Intune, MDM), identity (e.g., Azure AD), and automation.
  • Strong hands-on experience with Power Platform and APIs (Graph/REST).
  • Strong understanding of ITSM and ITIL processes, including shift-left strategies.
  • Experience with telemetry, monitoring, and event-driven architectures.
  • Data-driven decision-making style and comfort using metrics (ticket volume, MTTR, endpoint health, UX scores) to guide priorities.
  • Extensive change management and cross-functional collaboration skills.

You’ll stand out if you have

  • Experience with Copilot Studio, virtual agents, or AI-driven service desk platforms.
  • Background in platform engineering or SRE practices applied to end user computing and workplace services.
  • Familiarity with tools like Nexthink or similar endpoint analytics and digital experience monitoring platforms.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
