Role Overview
The Executive Technology Support Lead delivers high-touch, white-glove technology support to the firm’s most senior executives, principals, executive assistants, and other business-critical users. This is a senior individual contributor role with responsibility for executive support ownership, service standards, and mentorship across the broader End User Support organization.
