iChoosr is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.

Experienced, hands-on freelance IT specialist for 6 months at iChoosr (Amsterdam, 32-40 hours per week). You will take over operational Office IT tasks, bring extra seniority to our team, and lead several important projects: the selection of and transition to a number of new suppliers, further configuration of Entra ID/SSO, and the onboarding of mobile phones onto MDM.

Due to a change in the team and upcoming parental leave, our Office IT team will have insufficient capacity in the coming months. We are therefore looking for a senior freelancer who:

1. takes over various tasks, so that daily operations continue to run smoothly;

2. can lead and complete a number of ongoing projects (not just advise);

3. critically reviews our supplier choices and, where meaningful, helps transition to other suppliers;

4. prepares decisions and has them made, and hands everything over in such a way that the team can continue with it after your assignment.

You work in a small team with a broad scope. You are independent, pragmatic, and you dare to make and justify choices.

• Supplier and license management: you map out which services we procure from external parties (for example in the areas of licenses, hardware, security, and backup) and assess costs and risks. You advise whether we stay, take management in-house, or switch. In the event of a switch, you compare alternative suppliers based on our scope and needs, request concrete proposals, perform due diligence & due care, and prepare decision-making for the management team. We strive for a clear supplier landscape with as few parties as possible. Where necessary, you draw up the transition plan and guide existing suppliers during transitions and phase-outs.

• Google Workspace: you help with the further configuration and management of Google Workspace, and with the completion of the transition from Microsoft 365 to Google Workspace.

• Identity and security: you complete outstanding Microsoft Entra ID measures and connect more applications to Single Sign-On.

• Mobile Device Management: you bring mobile phones under MDM and ensure a consistent approach for macOS, Windows, and mobile devices (Intune).

• Collaboration with security: you work closely with our Information Security Officer and Enterprise Architect, so that choices in tooling and suppliers align with our ISO 27001 policy and architecture landscape.

• IT support: you handle tickets and incidents for colleagues in multiple countries (hardware, software, access, accounts).

• Access management: users, groups, licenses, and permissions in Google Workspace, Entra ID, and our SaaS tools, including onboarding and offboarding.

• Device management: the lifecycle of laptops and phones (macOS and Windows), registration, security, and replacement, and a correct asset register.

• Licenses and business cases: you assess license requests and maintain an overview of costs.

• You participate in the bi-weekly governance meeting.

• You document what you do (Jira and Confluence), so that the knowledge remains within the team.

• You ensure a good handover to the team and to the new Office IT Specialist whom we are recruiting in parallel.
