As the IT & Identity Manager at Benepass, you’ll own the IT function and the systems that support our employees, operating as a highly autonomous, hands-on leader within the organization. While this role does not currently have direct reports, you’ll have significant ownership and responsibility, setting the IT roadmap, running reliable IT services, and remaining hands-on with identity, endpoint management, SaaS administration, and automation. You’ll be accountable for service quality, project delivery, and the effective use of IT resources.
Reporting to the Head of Infosec & GRC, you’ll partner closely with Engineering, People Operations, Security, and Finance to turn business needs into clear priorities. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role where you’ll make decisions, communicate tradeoffs, and build scalable processes that others can operate. You’ll balance strategic ownership with day-to-day execution, including providing support coverage when needed while making capacity constraints and project impacts visible.
This remote role is based in the United States or Canada. You will be expected to attend company-wide on-site events three to four times per year, as well as occasional on-site office travel as necessary.
