The team

In a fast-changing world, we not only make sure our systems work effectively but our Technology teams are spearheading the transformation to a digital-first business.

There's never been a more exciting time to join our team.

The role
We are currently looking for a Service Lead for Finance to join ITV's Group Technology team.

The Service Lead for Finance will manage a small ITV team, supported by 3rd party resources, to ensure that the Oracle Fusion ERP, Oracle EPM and other associated finance services adhere to the ITV business requirements and integrate into the wider ITV landscape.

A key area for this role will be business engagement and stakeholder management as well as a close relationship with other service leads to ensure we have a consistent and coherent service across Oracle Fusion, other financial services and associated processes.

Adopt a risk mindset and champion adherence to IT General Controls. Support initiatives to strengthen rolebased access controls (RBAC) in Oracle Fusion and other associated systems, ensuring proper segregation of duties (SoD) and least privilege access.
Provide leadership during major incidents making critical decisions where necessary to restore service asap; this may require working out of hours.
Develop and maintain operational processes/documentation required to manage the service, monitor performance and risk, reacting quickly to rectify issues acting as the point of escalation when required.
Manage supplier relationships working closely with the ITV procurement and SIAM teams, monitoring performance against defined Key Performance Indicators and SLA's, actioning contract renewals, updating operational budget forecasts. Facilitate regular service reviews with key stakeholders including users, vendors and senior management to manage the service and resolve any issues.
Deliver continuous improvement working with GPOs to drive further value from ITV's investment and improve quality of service delivery; manage demand by prioritising product backlogs with business stakeholders
