Resume Review Request

Hey Everybody!
Decided to put a little more effort on searching for a new position and been trying to put in some work in the old resume. Wasn't getting much of a response so I even went as far as getting a professional resume done by a company with high reviews.
Thoughts?
I've posted both my old one and new one.

I don't like the heading. IT System Administrator / Operational Leader. (I just feel like it says I don't know what I am). Maybe I am the only one who thinks this. I would decide on one and stick to it. IT Operational Leader? Looks like your last role and your days of a GM would set you up nice with that title.
If possible especially on your most recent position I would like to see more quantitative bullets similar to these.
Optimized system availability maintaining an average 99.9% uptime and removing redundant systems to reduce waits and improve accessibility to data.
Implemented Cisco Aironet wireless controllers and Access Points to reduce WLAN dead spots by +40%.
I would also like to see you tie a saving amount to the impact of these. So you maintained 99.9% uptime, how did that save your company money? Did this mean you didn't breach the SLA's which in turn saved your company money?
Stuff like that, but overall I like the resume a lot.
Ditto. At the very least, write the summary paragraph well to show you can write. A resume full of bullets and sentence fragments does not impress and flies in the face of "outstanding communication skills"..
I second this. Quickly, before scaredoftests sees it.
Seriously though, you only want to use bullets to have your major achievements stand out, stuff you did that improved your work area.
Anyway, I looked. I don't like the title either. Of course, get rid of the bullets and write a brief summary for each job. Save the bullets for a cover letter.
I'm drying out today, last night was WOW.
Nice! Can't have any drinks here, that General Order One thing lol.
Do any of you have any examples that might be helpful? I ask since in my original resume (Generic_ResumeOLD.pdf), I did put a brief summary.
In addition, another consideration to think is the number of minutes your potential employer is going to spend on each resume. Ideally, you have to present a summary of skillset so that it takes a little time as possible for the interviewer to select your resume for interviews. Your work experience doesn't matter as much as the summary experience in the first half of the page. I think it is ideal if you are going for a management position, but may not be ideal if you are presenting yourself from the technical aspect. There isn't a perfect solution to this issue, but something to keep in mind if it is not working out for you.
Examples to better highlight the skills: https://d.novoresume.com/images/doc/simple-resume-template.png. Just something to lookout for if you want to better highlight your skillset to the reader.
I don't have any education past high school which is why I didn't include an education section.
I'll work on the summary experience from a more technical side.
Thanks for the example.
