Thanks Scott, I haven't used Glassdoor or dice, indeed I have been on every day.
I have a a feeling that you may see the same jobs on Glassdoor but dice may have other jobs. I forgot about monster.com.  Again, probably aggregated data.  
There are plenty of job listings that go by in my LinkedIn feed. Are you connected there?

www.linkedin.com 
Hello Philip and thanks for the response and yes I am connected there. I have the Premium membership. Do you know of any groups or recruiters or hiring managers that might be a good source of contact?

Not off the top since I'm self-employed via our own IT business.

Is freelance a possibility? 
There are variation of sites to EE where interactions are reimbursed. That might be an option you are after.
Some just ask questions and a person with specific knowledge provides....

It requires the person having the nees and paying. Doing the hands on work if needed.
Philip, I have my own LLC and am supporting about 20 end-points with an RMM. But choosing to work from home and not go out is a personal choice. If you have any leads on freelance work, please feel free to share.  
Arnold, can you refer me to any of those sites?            
We support large and small clients without an RMM. Shuck it. It's an extra cost burden that is not needed.

Native tools work just fine with Windows Admin Center coming along as far as a single pane of glass for a dashboard goes.

We've not used an RMM ever and never will. No trust.

EE used to offer the hire option, never took part, not sure whether it is still an option.

When people have just questionstheir expectation a person would =>> just ....<==
not sure whether EE policy and references to external sites been tightened, or relaxed in the competitive realm.

When you are trying to fix something, and pose a question, you may find an online person who will just answer.




I found that the hire option was okay but it was difficult to stay out of the perception that "he's only steering me to pay" trap. I'm glad that the feature went away as it really wasn't part of the EE ethos which is community support.
Thank you again to everyone that contributed to my request for information.
Have a great week!
Rich
Thanks again!
