• Oversee Microsoft 365 Security & Compliance technologies including Defender, Purview, and Conditional Access.
• People & Process: Mentor engineers, evaluate skills and training needs, and support career development.

Education and Experience: The ideal candidate will have:

• Leadership experience in technical operations or infrastructure delivery, preferably within an MSP.
