WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR:

You're someone who owns platform performance end-to-end. You don't accept "that's just how it works" you audit it, challenge it, and push for better. You’re equally comfortable having a difficult conversation with a supplier about service failures as you are getting hands-on to resolve a technical issue. From time to time, this may mean supporting critical issues outside of normal working hours, particularly around key events and launches.

You understand registration as a customer touchpoint, not a back-office function. You're detail-focused but strategic ,you see patterns across the business and you make recommendations that stick. You enjoy solving problems that sit at the intersection of technology, vendor management and customer experience.
