• Lead vendor relationships, measuring the performance of third-party contractors and security integrators to ensure successful installation, troubleshooting, and continuous support for all security systems.
• Oversee system administration, configuration, and maintenance of security systems, including monitoring and managing all software and firmware updates to ensure consistent functionality.
• Deploy innovative security solutions leveraging existing tool suites and your deep knowledge of the latest technological advancements to achieve effective risk management and efficiencies.
• Conduct regular audits and assessments to ensure that all technical security systems meet and exceed regulatory and company requirements.
• Provide expert technical support in-region for new security systems and, where necessary, lead the project management of security system changes from planning to progress reporting.

WHAT YOU'LL BRING:

• Expert knowledge demonstrated by at least 5+ years’ experience with increasing responsibility working with enterprise physical security systems (access control, visitor management, and CCTV systems - Avigilon, Alta Open preferred).
• Intermediate to advanced knowledge of information technology operations supported by work experience, education or certification including ITSM/ITIL, PMP, etc.
