Information Technology Manager

Lead the Tech Backbone of a Midwest Distribution Powerhouse

At Building Products Inc. (BPI), we fuel construction and millwork across the Midwest with top-tier products and unwavering operational excellence. But we’re more than a supplier — we’re a logistics-driven tech organization where the IT team plays a pivotal role in how we move, deliver, and support.

We’re looking for a hands-on IT leader who thrives in fast-paced environments, someone who can oversee day-to-day systems while driving long-term innovation in ERP, infrastructure, and data security.

About the Role

As our Information Technology Manager, you'll be both a strategic thinker and tactical executor. You'll lead a lean, capable IT team and own the systems that power our high-volume operations — from ERP optimization to co-located infrastructure, secure networks, and vendor ecosystems.

What You'll Own and Deliver

Leadership & Strategy

• Serve as a key operational leader, directly reporting to the CIO/CTO, who sets the long-term technology vision for BPI.
• Act as the primary coordinator and technical executor, translating strategic direction into actionable plans across infrastructure, applications, and operations.
• Align IT systems and processes with enterprise goals, especially in warehouse logistics and distribution.
• Lead, mentor, and grow a small, high-impact IT support team, fostering a culture of accountability and continuous improvement.
• Contribute architectural insight and technical expertise to help bridge the gap between vision and delivery.

ERP & Systems (DMSi / Agility)

• Serve as a subject matter expert on our ERP (DMSi/Agility), providing technical insight and functional guidance to improve system usage across the business.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with sales, inventory, and warehouse teams to enhance reporting, process flows, and system integrations (including WMS, CRM, and EDI).
• Drive workflow automation, system optimization, and data accuracy to support scalable operations and business visibility.

Network, Infrastructure & Data Center

• Ensure system uptime, reliability, and performance across LAN/WAN, servers, devices, and cloud services.
• Own co-location data center operations, backups, VPNs, and disaster recovery planning.
• Maintain lifecycle management for hardware, software, and failover systems.

Cybersecurity & Compliance

• Enforce security best practices across endpoints, user access, and data policies.
• Lead compliance with internal standards and regulatory frameworks.

End-User Support & Project Execution

• Champion fast, friendly IT support for warehouse, office, and field teams.
• Standardize documentation, ticketing, and resolution processes.
• Lead IT projects from vendor selection to implementation and scale-up.

Your Background

Required

• 5+ years in IT, with 2+ in team leadership or supervisory roles.
• Strong experience with networks, Windows systems, backups, and desktop support.
• Track record managing ERP systems, ideally in distribution/logistics environments.
• Familiarity with co-located data centers and disaster recovery planning.
• Bachelor’s degree in IT, Computer Science, or related field.

Preferred

• Hands-on experience with DMSi/Agility ERP.
• Knowledge of WMS, EDI, and warehouse automation platforms.
• Certifications such as CompTIA Network+, Security+, Cisco, or Microsoft.
• ERP optimization, systems integration, and vendor management.
