JOB TITLE: Information Technology Manager, Exempt
REPORTS TO: Executive Director
SUPERVISES: None
SALARY RANGE: $70,000 to $110,000 annually
Benefits – Medical, dental, vision, short/long term disability, life insurance, retirement plan and tuition reimbursement.
JOB SUMMARY:
As a food bank, The Food Depot’s primary role is to provide food to a network of nonprofit partners across nine counties in northern New Mexico. The Food Depot acquires food from a variety of sources–local donations, the Feeding America network, wholesale purchase, and USDA commodities–and provides that food to other nonprofits who provide hunger relief. The Food Depot works with more than 100 nonprofits in its service area–food pantries, shelters, senior centers, after-school programs, and meal programs.
With its pandemic response, the food bank shifted some of its distribution into direct service. The Food Depot is now serving as both northern New Mexico’s only food bank as well as one of its largest food pantries. This represents a tremendous shift in organizational structure and is directly related to increased demand as well as closures and limited capacity of other food pantries. This is a great opportunity for an individual who enjoys working with a public service minded organization that prioritizes learning, personal accountability, excellence, and team work,
