About the Opportunity

Reporting directly to the Chief Information Officer, this position provides daily support for HMC employees, business applications, computers, communications, and local infrastructure. The position also extends support to the broader SRM Concrete environment as assigned.

 

Because this individual is HMC’s primary on-site IT resource, success requires initiative, consistent follow-through, strong troubleshooting skills, and the ability to work independently. The ideal candidate anticipates needs, addresses problems proactively, and takes ownership of issues through resolution.

Travel to the SRM Home Office is required at least quarterly, with a minimum of four trips annually, including attendance at the annual leadership conference. Additional local or overnight travel may be required for projects, support, or acquisition activities.

The position participates in after-hours on-call support and occasional Saturday or scheduled weekend maintenance. Support coverage and handoffs will be coordinated with the broader SRM IT department.

 

Physical Requirements

Ability to move and install typical computer hardware and peripherals, place equipment on desks, and mount monitors, with reasonable accommodation. Work in manufacturing

areas requires compliance with applicable safety procedures and personal protective equipment requirements.
