Berkeley Hall School Looking for IT Manager Full Time

SUMMARY

Sitting atop 66 acres of the Santa Monica Mountains, Berkeley Hall School is the oldest PS-8,
coeducational independent school in Los Angeles. Its campus is a serene retreat from the bustle of nearby neighborhoods. The grounds embody
what Berkeley Hall School offers its 260 students – a safe, supportive, and close-knit community, where each child is empowered to
become a fearless scholar and conscientious citizen. Students enjoy an abundance of outdoor learning areas, in addition to robust athletic
facilities and a recently designed wellness center.

As important as the outdoors and face-to-face education are to Berkeley Hall,
technology is also an essential – and increasingly so – area of school operations. Over the last several years, the school has
invested heavily in its technology program. Continuing that trend, the school just created a new position: IT manager. That role will manage
an on-campus support specialist and oversee a third-party technology solutions provider, which provides engineering and back-end support.
The school is looking for an IT manager willing to be hands-on and proactive with data and systems administration. For the last few years,
that area of technology support has been served by an out-of-state contractor, who will step aside once this position is filled. Another
important focus area for the IT manager is the coordination of technology projects, which often involve a variety of stakeholders and
critical needs. The IT manager reports to the director of campus operations, also a new role that was just hired earlier this spring.
Berkeley Hall is excited to onboard an IT manager in early August, just prior to the start of the 23-24 school year.
