  • Vendor Management: Govern the performance of managed service providers and vendors against established Service Level Agreements (SLAs).

  • Disaster Recovery: Maintain accountability for disaster recovery and business continuity management services.

  • Operational Leadership: Deliver day-to-day support services to the business, including executive-level VIP service and the management of client-facing service hubs.

Required Qualifications and Experience

To be considered for this mandate, candidates must demonstrate:

  • Experience: A minimum of 5 years of experience in a similar Operations Lead or Technical Lead capacity.

  • Critical Incident Management: Significant experience managing major incidents and performing under pressure is a mandatory requirement.

  • On-Call History: Proven previous experience working on-call is essential.

  • Collaboration: Strong capability as a team collaborator with the ability to maintain high levels of customer trust.

  • Technical Expertise: A tertiary qualification in technology (or equivalent) and an ITIL Foundation or Practitioner certification.

  • Tool Proficiency: Extensive experience with service management tools (e.g., ServiceNow) and CMDB/asset inventory management.
