Founded in 2012, LADbible Group is redefining entertainment and news for a social generation. Our global community engages with our content–spanning editorial, video, documentary and live – we reach 1 billion people each and every month. Our mission is to give the youth generation a voice by building communities that laugh, think and act. Using all major platforms, we’ve rapidly risen to become one of the world's largest publishers.

• Owning IT support budget and asset lifecycle — from software licensing to hardware procurement.
• Championing IT security protocols and compliance.
• Supporting AV and meeting room setups, especially during board meetings and key events.
