IT Manager

A leading food manufacturer in Greater Barcelona is seeking an IT Manager to oversee and enhance the technology landscape supporting both its vibrant retail network and dynamic manufacturing operations. This is a unique opportunity for you to play a pivotal role in ensuring seamless business continuity, from ERP management to communications and end-point sales software, all while working alongside a dedicated associate.

This position is ideal for someone who thrives on collaboration and enjoys making a tangible difference across multiple business areas. The organization values your expertise in maintaining robust IT systems and offers a supportive environment where your contributions will directly impact operational excellence.

As an IT Manager, you will be entrusted with safeguarding the technological backbone of a thriving food manufacturer. Your day-to-day responsibilities will span from hands-on management of critical infrastructure—ensuring every server hums smoothly—to championing the deployment of advanced ERP solutions like Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. You will work collaboratively with colleagues across sales floors and production lines alike to guarantee that every transaction is supported by reliable systems. Your ability to balance immediate operational needs with long-term strategic projects—such as rolling out new POS features or optimizing network connectivity—will be key to your success. In this role you’ll not only maintain but also elevate the digital tools that underpin everything from inventory control to customer satisfaction.

• Oversee the design, implementation, and maintenance of IT infrastructure—including hardware, software, servers, networks, and cloud solutions—to ensure optimal performance across retail stores and manufacturing facilities.
• Ensure high availability, security, and resilience of all technology systems supporting both commercial points of sale and production environments.
• Manage first-line technical support for store staff and manufacturing teams by providing prompt assistance for hardware or software issues while nurturing positive relationships with end users.
• Serve as the primary contact for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central ERP activities by overseeing configuration, integration, customisation, and ongoing system maintenance tailored to business needs.
• Lead deployment projects for retail point-of-sale (POS) software across multiple locations by coordinating smooth installations, troubleshooting issues, and integrating with back-office applications such as inventory management.
• Monitor system health proactively by implementing disaster recovery plans, managing backups, conducting regular audits for data integrity, and minimising downtime or disruptions through preventative measures.
• Collaborate with vendors and third-party providers to resolve technical challenges related to communication systems or implement upgrades that enhance connectivity between sites.
• Develop and enforce IT policies, procedures, and best practices throughout the organisation while training employees on new technologies or processes as required.
• Align IT strategies with broader business objectives by identifying opportunities for process automation or technology enhancements that improve efficiency in both retail operations and manufacturing.

To excel as an IT Manager in this setting, you will bring not only deep technical acumen but also a genuine passion for supporting others through technology. Your background should reflect substantial experience navigating the intricacies of multi-site operations—balancing the demands of busy retail environments against those of fast-paced manufacturing plants. You are adept at translating business requirements into robust digital solutions using platforms like Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central while remaining approachable when guiding colleagues through everyday challenges. Your communication style is considerate yet clear; you thrive on building trust among peers, whether resolving urgent support requests or leading major project implementations. A commitment to continuous learning ensures you stay ahead of emerging trends in cybersecurity or cloud computing so that your recommendations always add value. Above all else, your collaborative mindset means you see yourself as part of a wider team—one whose collective success depends on mutual respect, empathy, adaptability, and whose achievements are measured not just by uptime statistics but by how well everyone feels supported.
