This role owns and administers the platforms and endpoints that the firm runs every day. Supporting the business applications our teams work in, the laptops they work from, and the identity and access controls that keep client data protected.\nYou'll join at an inflection point. We're transitioning off a virtual desktop environment toward managed, trusted laptops, which means the security perimeter is changing and the endpoint becomes the control point. You'll own that transition operationally while keeping our SOC 1 and SOC 2 evidence continuously audit-ready rather than assembled in a scramble each cycle.\nThis is a hands-on operations role reporting to the Head of IT. It suits someone who takes real ownership of the environment, communicates clearly with non-technical colleagues, and would rather prevent a problem than resolve one quickly.\nThe Role in a Nutshell\nAdminister the firm's core business platforms (Monday.com, Jira, and HubSpot, and others). Including user provisioning, permissions, workspace structure, integrations, and license management.\nManage Claude access and spending controls: seat provisioning, group membership, usage limits, and cost monitoring against budget.\nOwn Microsoft Intune administration for the Windows fleet and Jamf administration for Macs and iPads, covering enrollment, compliance policies, configuration profiles, application deployment, and patching.\nBuild and operate the trusted laptop program: device baselines, encryption, conditional access enrollment, and lifecycle management from provisioning through decommission.\nSupport the VDI-to-laptop transition operationally including imaging, migrations, user onboarding, and the exceptions that inevitably follow.\nAdminister M365 and Entra identity: SSO, group management, conditional access, and license assignment. Own onboarding and offboarding execution end to end.\nAdminister OneDrive and SharePoint governance: storage policies, retention, and external-sharing controls appropriate to a firm handling client data.\nAutomate repetitive administrative work using PowerShell or Python to accelerate onboarding and offboarding steps, reporting, license reconciliation, and compliance evidence collection.\nMonitor security alerting across M365 Defender, Intune, and endpoint tooling. Triage with judgment, investigate events, and escalate with a clear read on severity.\nExecute ISMS automation work in Vanta and own technical evidence collection for SOC 1 and SOC 2 (access reviews, device compliance, patch records, and offboarding logs).\nSurface control gaps and access drift proactively, before they become audit findings. \nWe Are:\nZealous about exceptional client service and internal collaboration.\nAgile and execution-focused, with a bias toward action and impact.\nGrowth-oriented and committed to professional development.\nFeedback-heavy and mentoring-rich, with a culture of continuous improvement.\nEager to solve complex, ambiguous problems with creativity and rigor.\nHardworking and passionate about building the future of technology-enabled consulting.\nQualifications & Requirements:\n6+ years of experience in system administration, IT operations, or endpoint management in a business environment.\nHands-on administration experience with Microsoft Intune and Microsoft 365/Entra, including conditional access and identity governance.\nExperience with Jamf for macOS and iPad management.\nDemonstrated experience administering SaaS business platforms (Monday.com, Jira, HubSpot, or comparable tools) and dealing with permissions models, integrations, and license governance.\nWorking knowledge of OneDrive and SharePoint administration, including sharing and retention policy enforcement.\nScripting proficiency in PowerShell or Python is sufficient to automate routine administrative work, reporting, and evidence collection.\nExperience supporting SOC 1 or SOC 2 evidence collection and control operation; familiarity with compliance automation platforms such as Vanta is a strong plus.\nPractical security monitoring experience with ability to triage alerts with judgment rather than escalating indiscriminately or not at all.\nExperience supporting a VDI-to-physical-endpoint migration or comparable environment transition is a plus.\nStrong written and verbal communication skills. You will explain technical constraints to non-technical colleagues regularly, and clarity matters.\nBackground check required.\nAbout Equity Methods\nEquity Methods is a financial services consulting firm specializing in stock-based equity compensation and other complex financial reporting and valuation services. We deliver impact-rich engagements across three core practice groups: financial reporting, valuation services, and HR advisory.\nWith over 175 professionals and experience with over 1,000 publicly traded clients (including 50 Fortune 100 companies), Equity Methods combines the best traits of an industry-leading professional services firm with the best of an entrepreneurial, technology-enabled company.
