    Act as a senior escalation point and trusted partner to business stakeholders.

    Manage third‐party suppliers, contracts, and service costs, ensuring value for money and strong performance.

    Support service continuity planning, governance, and regulatory compliance (including FCA conduct requirements).

    You'll Bring

    Evidenced people‐management experience leading mid‐to‐large service desk or technology support teams.

    A track record of driving service improvement, team optimisation, and customer‐focused change.

    Solid knowledge of ITIL/ITSM frameworks and operational service management.

    Experience introducing or improving SLAs, KPIs, automation, and self‐service capabilities.

    Excellent understanding of PC hardware, operating systems (Windows 10/11), printers, and peripheral devices.

    Familiarity with mobile and telephony support, including VoIP systems and MDM (Mobile Device Management).

    Basic networking knowledge (e.g., DNS, DHCP, VPN, broadband troubleshooting).

    Knowledge of common office applications (Microsoft 365, Outlook, Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint).

    Confidence working with both modern cloud‐based services and legacy environments.

    Excellent stakeholder management skills and the ability to translate technical performance into meaningful business insight.
