Find IT decision makers (sales)
You sell infrastructure or security tooling and need the IT leaders who approve vendors.
(CIO OR CTO OR "IT director" OR "head of IT" OR "VP of information technology") NOT ("help desk" OR support OR assistant OR student) Vendor decisions concentrate in a handful of IT leadership titles, so the search targets them directly. The NOT group strips out the support tier, which shares IT keywords but not purchasing authority.
