IT Director / IT Manager / IT Project Manager

Hello, my name is George Thayer and I am hoping to provide you with

enough information in the next few minutes from my 20+ years of service in

the technology field to gain the privilege of an interview for the

Information Technology Manager opportunity. I read your career description

carefully and truly believe that my background, skills and experience are

very good for your particular position.

I managed the design, installation and support for: networks

(LAN/WAN/WLAN/VLAN/VPN), VOIP systems (Shoretel & Cisco), VMware & Hyper-V

virtual server systems, servers (Microsoft 2000-2012, SQL, Web, Exchange

2003-2013 & Terminal), Firewalls & routers (Cisco, Juniper, Netgear,

Watchguard & other), storage & backup systems (Symantec, Veeam, & other

SAN's),disaster recovery systems, paperless imaging/scanning & document

management systems (OnBase), commercial wireless systems and security

monitoring systems. For the past decade I have been a very hands-on IT

manager, infrastructure project manager, helpdesk manager, consultant,

programmer and instructor. I have worked on very large state-wide projects

for MI DOC and Comcast with as many as 200 remote sites and I have my

passport ready for any international. I bring many, many skills to the

table with the ability to learn new ones quickly when necessary.

I have a proven track record of creating, managing and implementing

solutions that improve efficiencies, reliability and quality to many

customers and systems. My resume discusses the basics, but I can best

describe the depth of my abilities and knowledge in person. Please contact

me if you are interested in knowing more.
