Background

About Thomas Hood

I am a seasoned IT decision-maker, and systems administrator with considerable experience providing support for individuals and managing complex network issues across business sectors. Recognized for demonstrating a natural aptitude for facilitating clear communication among stakeholders, as well as for deploying effective security solutions. Professional focal points include IT systems oversight, hardware sales/support, corporate IT solutions, computer networking, technical documentation, cyber security, customer service, troubleshooting, and problem solving. Delivering superior administration on the latter areas of expertise requires utilization of effective interpersonal, communication and organizational skills, as well as business acumen, systems analysis, and project and resource management to support optimal outcomes. Currently, I am IT System Administrator with Alamos Gold Inc. Under my leadership, I ensure proper setup, enhancement, and maintenance of IT systems. I also determine and overcome end-user issues and deploy problems analysis to generate short- and long-term solutions that drive organizational performance. In addition, I liaise with senior leadership, stakeholders, and IT security teams to ensure the company’s technological support structure is driving the business forward with minimal expenditures. Colleagues describe me as a progressive, driven, down-to-earth, technically expert IT leader who can be relied on to offer superior solutions that deliver ideal results on time and under budget.
