Senior IT Service Manager

You’re a natural communicator with experience leading and influencing people. An expert in customer service management and in-depth commercial awareness. And you enjoy analysing, interrogating and evaluating data. So, have you ever considered taking your career to a global level?

At FCDO Services, you could do your job, bigger. We protect the UK’s interests around the world. We design and construct secure government buildings. We keep government-level assets and information secure. We safeguard government tech. And a whole lot more besides. As a Senior IT Service Manager, you’ll support the delivery of IT and other technical services to a portfolio of our commercial customers.

Solve issues on projects of national importance

Working closely with our Customer Delivery and Live Services teams, you’ll make sure the IT services we provide our customers meet all agreed KPIs and run as smoothly and efficiently as possible. As the link between our teams and customers, you’ll be the first point of call when it comes to resolving any service issues that arise on critical, high-profile projects. You’ll build key relationships across FCDO Services, with product owners, service desk professionals and other technical experts behind the scenes. And, of course, you’ll shape and manage our relationships with customers too, identifying growth opportunities and driving service improvements wherever you can. In everything you do, you’ll be easy to work with, reliable, responsive and great at building relationships.

Make your influence felt inside and outside the business

With extensive service delivery management experience, you’ll play a pivotal role in our customer relationships. Internally, you’ll inject real energy into the team, ensuring technical colleagues continue to deliver the highest level of service. Externally, you’ll draw on your excellent IT and relationship management skills to help us deliver the best possible customer service. Plus, you’ll be a translator between technical teams and non-technical customers. That’s why you’ve got a thorough understanding of IT products and processes thanks to your ITIL v4 qualification.

And enjoy greater rewards, professionally and personally

When you join us, you’ll be contributing to protecting the nation’s interests at home and overseas – but how will we help you in return? As well as a competitive salary, holiday entitlement and Civil Service pension, we’ll also support your development with training opportunities to help you advance your career with us. On-site gym, nursery and a restaurant are available, if you want to work from home some of the time, we also offer hybrid working opportunities. Above all, it’s a chance to join a team with impact, using your skills to help us protect people, information and assets around the world. In short, it’s your job, bigger.

All our employees have to be security cleared to the highest level, so you’ll need to undergo a comprehensive vetting process before joining. You are able to start work with Security Check (SC) clearance, with DV being a longer-term requirement of the role. You can find out more about vetting on our website.

It takes a diverse team to protect a diverse world.

The vital work we do takes an incredible community of colleagues, with different skills, backgrounds, cultures and identities. We support every individual, so that you always know you’re welcome and valued. It’s what makes us a Disability Confident employer. And why we’re recognised as a ‘Carer Confident’ workplace.
