All-round ICT Professional

Location: Beerst (Diksmuide), Belgium

As an all-round ICT professional most of my working experience involved multiple aspects of IT (system/network administration, ERP, programming, hardware support).
In my recent functions as IT Manager I also carried the responsability of the long term IT (technology selection, budgets, purchases).

I have a strong affinity with Open Source, and have succesfully implemented many open source solutions as alternatives to commercial solutions (e.g. Linux, MySQL, Asterisk, OTRS, Apache, ProFTP, network boot via PXE/TFTP including System Rescue CD and system imaging solutions).

Ambitions are to work in a small IT team supporting internal IT.
Following aspects make a job more attractive to me:

- international context
- possibility to suggest and implement open source alternatives

- limited commute distance
