Description The Mobile Device Manager is accountable for the end-to-end lifecycle, availability, security and cost-effective management of Purolator’s operational mobile devices and related equipment across the national network. The portfolio includes rugged Android handheld scanners, finger and wearable scanners, tablets, label printers, batteries, cradles, chargers, mounts and protective accessories. Leading three direct reports, this manager owns the device service, lifecycle roadmap, budgets, vendor relationships, inventory governance and mobile device management (MDM). The manager partners with IT and Operations leaders on demand planning, device standards, deployments, support and issue resolution. In addition to this core device mandate, the role coordinates reliability and security-remediation improvements for IT operations applications, working with existing technical owners.
