Job Title: Vice President of Information Technology
Company: TNG Networks Inc
Location: Toronto,ON
Description:

What we do
TNG Networks Inc. is a Microsoft Gold Partner that provides the full spectrum of IT services from outsourced IT service and support to all levels of managed services. We work closely with our clients, drawing from our industry knowledge and Creative ITT solutions to deliver results that are exactly what the client wants, even if they sometimes don't know what they want to begin with (but that's OK, that is why we are in business).
Also, we are a very cool IT company.

Where this job is located and what this job entails
We are currently looking for a Vice President of Information Technology (Canada).

This senior position will be responsible for all IT activity in Canada and will be based out of our head office located in Liberty Village in the west end of Toronto, Ontario. You will be responsible for the flawless execution of our outsourced IT resources and our centralized help desk. You will work closely with your counterpart in the US to provide leadership to our staff and top class solutions to our clients. You will work with senior management to create the best IT solutions company in Canada.

Who We Want
We are looking for a General to keep our IT department at the peak of excellence and get nothing short of top results. Can you demonstrate and embody physical strength, emotional strength and strength of purpose? Do you have a history as a leader in the IT consulting industry? Do you have the educational smarts to outshine everyone else? Do you have the ability to work under tight deadlines with shifting priorities? If you answered affirmative, read on.

As the VP of IT, you must be prepared to sell your soul to your staff - in the most legally sound manner of course. In order to excel in this role, you must be combat ready at all times, trained to counter any threat, anywhere. Considering these less than favourable conditions we expect you to maintain the poise and organizational aura of a true professional. In simplest terms; you have IT - cool under pressure and thrive on challenge, you know how to anticipate what needs to be done and you can deliver. If you are still interested and not running scared, you might be the one.

We at TNG like to think our corporate culture is unique unto itself. Each and every team member understands the importance of the motto 'Work hard and play harder'. Ambition, Innovation and Results are always rewarded. TNG respects that a happy employee is always a more productive employee.

If you are the person that fits this bill then Uncle Steve is looking for you.

What we offer
We offer you an opportunity to define who you are and a blank canvas to achieve our common goal. More than a full time job, you will become part of a group that is passionate about what they do for their clients. If this means working odd hours or hanging out in strange cities, so be it, we adjust as we expect you will. We pay you what you are worth and then some. Training is a lifelong journey and we expect to help you on this path as you grow and prosper which in turn, we hope, will enrich us all.
