• Define and optimize workflows for intake, triage, escalation, and fulfillment
• Ensure integration of IAM workflows (e.g., onboarding, offboarding, access provisioning) into the ITSM environment

AI & Automation-First

• Champion automation of repeatable service tasks to enable low-touch fulfillment and reduce manual effort
• Partner on the design and orchestration of self-service and AI-enabled tools using platforms like Workato, Okta Workflows, and MDM/UEM
• Improve Tier 0 and Tier 1 resolution rates via virtual agents and auto-resolution capabilities
  
• Manage external support vendors, including Tier 1 helpdesk providers, holding them accountable for SLAs, service quality, and cost-effectiveness
• Use operational data and employee feedback to drive vendor performance improvements and renewal decisions
  

What You Bring
