We run performance-driven paid media and micro-influencer campaigns for more than 250 brands - powered by a distributed team of roughly 200 people across 15+ countries, and a stack of tools that has scaled faster than the function that supports it.\nWe are a remote-first, contractor-heavy, data-led agency group. We move quickly, we ship real work for real clients, and we care about the infrastructure behind the work as much as the work itself.\nThe role\nThis is the first senior IT hire across the portfolio. You'll make IT simple and scalable for ~200 people within our agencies, working fully remotely across 15+ countries.\nYou will own IT end-to-end across the tools, the identity layer, the vendor stack, the BYOD posture, and the baseline cybersecurity and compliance. You’re the brain behind the system and the hands that make it work.\nYou will partner with the COO, the founders, and the operations team to design an IT function that scales, without bloating the team or the budget.\nWhat you'll do\nOwn the IT function end-to-end. Systems, identity, access, onboarding, offboarding, tooling, and vendor relationships across every portfolio company.\n\nDesign for BYOD and distributed teams. Build a security posture that works for personal devices, contractor workflows, and cross-border data realities.\n\nRationalise the stack. Kill shadow IT, consolidate overlapping SaaS, and deliver visible monthly savings on tools like Figma, Airtable and their cousins.\n\nMake access easy. Set up identity and access management so people can work across companies without chasing permissions.\n\nBuild processes people actually use. Help delivery and every other team work faster and more centrally, with AI built into how work gets done. Then check what's working and fix what isn't.\n\nSupport security and governance. Put sensible baseline controls in place for a BYOD setup and compliance requirements. If parts of that sit outside your expertise, you’d collaborate with a security consultant and manage the work end to end with them.\n\nLead, write, document. Turn tribal knowledge into runbooks. Explain IT risk and tradeoffs in plain English. Build the function so it doesn't depend on you.\n\nWhat we're looking for\nMust-haves\n5+ years of experience in IT functions in start-up/scale-up environments. Includes either building an IT function from scratch or meaningfully restructuring one.\n\nRemote or hybrid experience. You've supported distributed teams before.\n\nStrong identity and access management foundation.\n\nA builder mindset. You ship systems that run without you.\n\nThe confidence to defend your call. You know how to make the case and bring people with you.\n\nClear communication. You explain complex IT to non-technical people and document what you build.\n\nNice-to-haves\nFully remote experience.\n\nExperience supporting a BYOD workforce.\n\nFamiliarity with PIPEDA or other Canadian privacy requirements.\n\nExposure to SOC 2, ISO 27001, or similar frameworks; experience running cybersecurity and compliance.\n\nPrior portfolio / multi-entity IT experience.\n\nOur core stack\nGoogle Workspace, Slack, Notion, ClickUp, Figma, and AI tools across teams.\n\nNot a fit if\nYou've spent your whole career in an office.\n\nYour background is mostly large Microsoft or Azure enterprise environments.\n\nYou measure success by how much you build rather than how much gets used.\n\nYou want to advise and move on. This is an ownership role.\n\nWhy join us\nYou build the function. No legacy system to maintain. No politics to dismantle. A clean sheet and real leadership scope.\n\nReal leverage. Every system you design touches ~200 people across 15+ countries from day one.\n\nClear path to grow. Room to build the team beneath you as the company grows.\n\nRemote by design. Work from anywhere with 4h EST overlap. Contractor-friendly setup.\n\nA leadership team that wants an IT function. The mandate, the budget, and the backing are in place, that's why we're hiring.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4101,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Argentina","iso":"AR","kind":"country"},{"name":"Brazil","iso":"BR","kind":"country"},{"name":"Colombia","iso":"CO","kind":"country"},{"name":"Mexico","iso":"MX","kind":"country"},{"name":"South Africa","iso":"ZA","kind":"country"},{"name":"Chile","iso":"CL","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Advertising","Influencer Marketing"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-26T17:51:20Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":1,"expected_fill_days":47,"reasons":["conf:3","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-28T05:59:10Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/inbeat-it-manager","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/inbeat-it-manager.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-29T00:51:20Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":1273,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-30T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":162843},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=162843"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Finbeat-it-manager"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Finbeat-it-manager"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Finbeat-it-manager"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/inbeat-it-manager\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Finbeat-it-manager"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3284327}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"inbeat.agency","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3284327},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
