We are seeking a seasoned professional in both technology and people leadership to own the strategy, lifecycle, and performance of our global Collaboration and Productivity platforms.

This role is accountable end-to-end — from technology evaluation and roadmap development through implementation, governance, support, optimization, and ongoing evolution. You will lead a team of eight engineers responsible for delivering highly reliable collaboration services that power a fast-paced, global trading firm.

This is an experienced managerial role operating in a lean, high-accountability environment. Success requires strong technical judgment, exceptional communication skills, and the ability to balance strategic oversight with hands-on engagement when necessary.

This is not a day-to-day engineering position; however, deep fluency in Microsoft 365 and modern collaboration ecosystems is essential.

In this role, you will:

• Define and execute collaboration strategy aligned with organizational goals
• Lead platform modernization initiatives and major upgrades
• Establish governance, standards, and best practices for collaboration technologies
• Prioritize initiatives in partnership with senior stakeholders
• Ensure operational excellence across messaging, document management, conferencing, and productivity tooling
• Monitor platform health, performance, and security posture
• Foster strong cross-functional partnerships across global offices
• Build, mentor, and develop a high-performing technical team

What You Will Own:

• Full lifecycle ownership of the firm’s Microsoft 365 collaboration ecosystem, including evaluation, implementation, governance, support, remediation, and upgrades
• Development and execution of a multi-year Collaboration & Productivity technology roadmap aligned with business priorities
• Leadership of an 8-person team of systems engineering and development delivering global collaboration services
• Adoption, performance, and continuous improvement of collaboration platforms across all offices
• Regulatory compliance, data retention, and secure communications standards in a financial services environment
• Vendor strategy, licensing optimization, and partner management
• Executive communication and stakeholder alignment across technology and business teams

What Sets This Role Apart:

• End-to-end ownership — not just operations
• High visibility and direct impact across a global trading firm
• Lean team, meaningful accountability
• Opportunity to shape collaboration strategy in a performance-driven environment

Leadership & Ownership:

• 5+ years of people leadership experience, including direct management of technical teams
• Demonstrated ownership of enterprise collaboration platforms across multiple lifecycle stages
• Proven ability to define roadmaps, prioritize effectively, and execute in dynamic environments
• Strong decision-making skills with comfort operating without excessive process

Technical Fluency:

• 8+ years of experience leading, managing, or evolving Microsoft 365 services
• Deep understanding of Exchange Online, Teams, SharePoint Online, and OneDrive
• Experience leading platform migrations, modernizations, or large-scale upgrades
• Familiarity with governance, retention policies, compliance, and audit readiness

Environment & Culture Fit:

• Experience operating collaboration platforms in regulated environments (financial services preferred; healthcare, utilities, or similar industries also valued)
• Ability to engage engineers and executives with equal credibility
• Strong communication and stakeholder influence skills
• Comfortable working fully on-site in Bala Cynwyd

Education:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field (or equivalent experience)
