Internal IT Manager (Part-Time)

Join Lepaya!

We are seeking an experienced Internal IT Manager to take full ownership of our internal technology landscape (~100 FTE). This is a critical, hands-on role designed for an expert who thrives on process improvement, governance, and maintaining a secure, highly efficient employee technology experience.

What You'll Be Responsible For

You will manage all aspects of Internal IT, focusing on strategy, governance, vendor management, and continuous improvement.

We believe great technology should make people’s work easier, not harder. As our Internal IT Manager, you’ll be the driving force behind that goal. You’ll take ownership of all things Internal IT: strategy, systems, vendors, and work hand in hand with our Security team to enforce best practices, manage incidents, and safeguard our digital environment. You’ll keep our people productive, our tools sharp, and our environment secure.

What You’ll Do

• Own and optimize internal IT processes, budget, and tooling strategy to keep our systems efficient, secure, and scalable. We are a company of about 100 employees, mostly in the NL, but also in other EU regions.

• Act as the main contact for our IT vendors (like L’Comp), ensuring service quality, cost-effectiveness, and smooth collaboration.

• Oversee our core internal platforms — from Google Workspace and Bitwarden to Personio integrations and AWS access — ensuring seamless onboarding, access control, and compliance.

• Forecast and manage the internal IT budget, overseeing the acquisition of all IT hardware, software licenses, and services to ensure cost-effectiveness and timely renewals.

• Keep our global teams connected and secure through MDM, SSO, and strong IAM practices.

• Partner with teams across the business to deliver smart, scalable IT solutions that enable everyone to work better.

• Work hand in hand with our Security team to enforce best practices, manage incidents, and safeguard our digital environment.

Where this role can grow:

As Lepaya matures, we envision this position expanding into information security governance. If you're curious about compliance frameworks, risk management, or security certifications, you'll have the opportunity to develop in that direction with support from our Security team.

What You Bring to Lepaya

• 5+ years of hands-on and strategic experience in Internal IT Management, IT Operations, or a similar role, ideally within a fast-paced scale-up environment.

• Proven administrative mastery and governance experience with the following platforms:

• Google Workspace (Admin Console)

• Identity and Access Management (SSO/SAML/OAuth) implementation.

• Cloud Infrastructure fundamentals (AWS - specific to internal services).

• Expertise in developing and managing ITIL-based processes (Incident, Request, Change, Asset Management).

• Strong experience with device management processes and solutions, including assets in multiple countries.

• Exceptional communication, vendor management, and negotiation skills. The ability to articulate complex technical issues to non-technical staff is vital.

• A track record of successfully implementing and enforcing IT security policies in close partnership with the Security team.

Nice-to-have:

• Familiarity with Bitwarden or similar enterprise password management tools.

• Microsoft Office 365 environment (License management, Azure AD concepts)

• Familiarity with endpoint security, and compliance frameworks such as ISO 27001 and PCI.
