About the Role
We are looking for someone who genuinely cares about the people around them. Someone who gets energized by making technology invisible, spaces welcoming, and workdays smoother for everyone they support.
This is not a traditional helpdesk role. It sits at the intersection of IT, office experience, and people operations. The person who thrives here will be as comfortable onboarding a new hire as they are resolving a ticket or rethinking how a conference room is set up.
You will be the primary contact for technology and workplace needs across our Toronto office. Day to day, that means resolving IT issues quickly and thoughtfully, keeping our office environment running well, and advocating for a great employee experience from the moment someone walks in the door to the moment they log off.
You will work closely with teams across the organization including IT, HR, and Operations, and you will have real ownership over how we show up for our people every day.
