Business Technology Strategist (vCIO)

Join our IT Team- Where Technology Meets Excellence

SolutionsIT | Southern Manitoba | Full-time | Some local travel

Ever built a smart plan and then watched it stall before anyone acted on it?

You are the person leaders turn to when the question is “What should we do next?” not “Can you fix this?” You connect business goals to technology decisions, you cut through unnecessary complexity, and you care about outcomes: higher productivity, lower risk, fewer surprises, and plans that deliver real results.

We are SolutionsIT, and we are hiring a Business Technology Strategist to lead technology planning for a group of client organizations, including some of our most established, governance-minded clients. These are organizations that already take technology seriously and expect a real strategic partner in the room, not just a status update. You work directly with owners, senior leadership, and boards, turn their goals into clear roadmaps and budgets, and drive execution through our service teams, project teams, and vendors. To your clients, you are their technology planning lead. Inside our company, you lead through clarity, influence, and follow-through.

This is not tech support, and it is not a sales role.

What you'll do

What you bring

We care more about your judgment and how you carry yourself with senior leaders than a perfect resume. You will do well here if you:

You do not need to be the most advanced technician in the room. Our technical teams give you the substance, and you turn it into business-level strategy and recommendations. What matters most is business acumen, communication, and follow-through.

Not required, but a plus:

There’s also room to grow here. This seat can expand over time into broader client advisory and strategic operations work as you build trust and show results, so if you’re looking for a place to plant roots and lead, you’ll like it here.

We provide the training you need to excel, and we’re committed to creating an environment where your growth and our clients’ success go hand in hand.

Ready to do work you actually enjoy? Let’s talk.

We strive for excellence in everything we do- including finding the right team members to represent our company and support our culture. 

About us

We are a Manitoba-based managed IT and technology services company serving clients across Canada and the U.S. We provide managed IT, VoIP, and physical security like cameras and access control. Our mission is simple: help our clients thrive by getting the most out of their technology. We do that through consistent standards, proactive planning, and dependable execution. We value clarity, a steady cadence, and doing what we said we’d do. Our team is a mix of technical, administrative, and account roles, and people here describe it as a supportive place with leaders who genuinely care.

How to apply

Send your resume to hiring@solutionsit.ca  with a short note answering two questions:

1. Why does this role fit you?

2. Share one example where you reduced complexity or risk for an organization. What changed because of it?

Optional but helpful: include a short writing sample, like a one-page memo, recommendation, or summary.

Even if you don’t check every box, we’d still love to hear from you. We’re not looking for perfect. We’re looking for engaged.
