I’m partnered with a leading UK charity, who are looking to hire a Head of Technology Operations to lead and improve their day-to-day technology operations function.
The organisation is currently going through a significant technology modernisation programme. This role will have a particular focus on strengthening the existing Technology Operations function, improving service performance and ensuring new technology can transition effectively into BAU.
The role will:
Lead Technology Operations across Service Desk, end-user computing and application support
Improve IT service management across incident, problem, change and major incident management
Establish stronger SLAs, KPIs, service reporting and continual improvement
Manage key technology suppliers and MSPs, ensuring performance and value for money
Lead and develop an established Technology Operations team through a period of change
Ensure new services transition successfully from transformation programmes into BAU
Help shape the future Technology Operations operating model
Skills required:
Strong leadership experience across Technology Operations, IT Operations or IT Service Management
Proven experience improving an underperforming or immature technology operations function
Strong knowledge of ITSM, including incident, problem, change and service performance management
Experience managing third-party technology suppliers and managed service providers
Strong people leadership and senior stakeholder management experience
Experience with ServiceNow or another enterprise ITSM platform would be advantageous
Charity or not-for-profit experience would be beneficial but is not essential
This would suit someone who has previously taken ownership of a Technology Operations function and delivered measurable improvements across people, process, suppliers and service performance, while working alongside a wider technology transformation.
