IT Manager
Tech Partners, Tulsa, OK, United States
Tech Partners is partneringwith a well-established, multi-office professional services organization to identify an
IT Manager
who can step into a high-impact leadership role and help guide the next phase of their technology evolution.
This position is
on-site in Tulsa, OK , and replaces a long-tenured IT leader. The client is looking for a
business-savvy IT professional —someone who can own the technology environment end to end, drive cybersecurity efforts, and build a forward-looking IT strategy, while still being comfortable rolling up their sleeves when needed.
What This Role Is Really About
This is not a pure keep-the-lights-on IT role. The client wants:
strategic IT leader
who can build and execute a technology roadmap aligned with business goals
hands-on technical expert
who truly understands the Azure / Microsoft 365 stack they're responsible for
internal owner of cybersecurity , not just someone who manages vendors
a leader who can
communicate clearly with executives
and translate IT decisions into business impact
Someone who can
lead, mentor, and elevate a small IT team
while driving accountability and modernization
The environment supports ~250 users across five locations, with a mix of in-office and hybrid employees.
Key Responsibilities
Own overall IT strategy, infrastructure, and day-to-day operations
Build and maintain a technology roadmap aligned to business and risk priorities
Lead and develop a small internal IT team (including Help Desk resources in Tulsa and OKC)
Oversee Microsoft Azure, Microsoft 365, identity, access, and cloud services
Support hybrid work through VPN and secure remote access
Serve as the internal owner of cybersecurity efforts, including policies, risk management, and incident response
Coordinate with an external cybersecurity partner (including PEN testing and remediation)
Manage vendors across cloud, connectivity, cybersecurity, and telephony (RingCentral)
Explore automation and AI-driven solutions, including AI agents, where they add real business value
What They're Looking For
Must Have:
7+ years of progressive IT experience, including leadership or ownership of an IT environment
Strong hands-on experience with Azure and Microsoft 365
Broad infrastructure, networking, and systems knowledge
Demonstrated cybersecurity ownership (beyond just vendor coordination)
Experience supporting multi-location and hybrid users
Nice to Have:
Experience building or managing AI agents or intelligent automation
Background in professional services, insurance, financial services, or other regulated environments
Relevant technical or security certifications
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
High visibility and influence with executive leadership
Opportunity to modernize and shape IT after a 20+ year tenure transition
Balance of strategic ownership and hands‑on responsibility
Stable organization investing intentionally in technology and security
If you're an IT leader who enjoys
owning the environment, influencing strategy, and being the go‑to technology partner for the business , this is worth a conversation.
