About the Role

You will report to the Head of Global IT Support & IT Supply Chain and own the operational maturity of our global IT Service Desk. The role carries direct accountability for the roadmap behind cross-functional programs that change how we support 30,000+ employees across 300+ offices.

Day to day, you will run our shift-left and AI-first programs: growing virtual-agent deflection, merging Tier 2 and application operations into a single administration team, and restructuring vendor contracts around automation and reliability outcomes instead of headcount. You will set SLA standards, lead executive-level escalations, and make the calls on where to invest engineering effort versus vendor capacity.

What You’ll Do

• Own the regional IT Service Delivery roadmap. Use operational data to find systemic gaps and design strategies that keep support capacity ahead of business growth.
• Run the shift-left and AI-first program: grow virtual-agent ticket deflection past 200K per year, consolidate Tier 2 and application operations into one team, and bring Tier 3 into IT Ops so escalations stay under one roof.
• Set and enforce SLA, QA, and vendor-governance standards across managed service providers. Restructure vendor compensation so it rewards deflection, auto-resolution, mean time to resolve, and quality—not headcount.
• Act as the final escalation point for high-stakes technical incidents. Coordinate rapid response across engineering, security, and business technology teams, and own crisis communication to executives.
• Run a portfolio of global initiatives (office launches, M&A integrations, major tool rollouts). Manage dependencies, critical paths, and resource constraints across parallel workstreams.

Basic Qualifications

• 8+ years in IT program management or IT operations leadership, with direct experience managing global or multi-regional service delivery teams.
• Track record of driving operational transformation: shift-left programs, AI/automation adoption, or vendor-model redesigns at scale.
• Deep working knowledge of ITSM platforms (ServiceNow preferred), ITIL frameworks, and enterprise IT environments (endpoint management, identity, networking, collaboration tools).

Preferred Qualifications

• Hands-on experience with AI-driven service transformation: virtual-agent deflection, automated ticket resolution, or self-service portal rollouts.
• PMP, PgMP, ITIL Expert, or Six Sigma certification.
• Proficiency in SQL, Tableau, or advanced spreadsheet analysis for operational reporting and executive storytelling.
• Experience with ITSM platform engineering, IT asset management tools, or procurement platforms.
• Background managing large MSP relationships end to end: RFP processes, quarterly business reviews, and performance-based contracts.
• Previous experience managing a large operation organization of size 100+ technicians

PgM Competency Alignment (L5 – Sr. PgM I)

• Organize & Execute

  Defines and organizes programs, drives progress autonomously, and resolves complex issues without waiting for direction. Maintains high productivity and quality across every program in the portfolio.

• Fearless & Truth Seeking

  Spots organizational disconnects early and moves to fix them without being asked. Junior PgMs treat this person as a reliable source of ground truth.

• Domain Aptitude

  Deep, working expertise in IT service delivery, ITSM, AI-driven support, and vendor management. Uses that knowledge to find gaps and push improvements before they become urgent.

• Leading Through Influence

  Gets things done through others without positional authority. Pulls diverse viewpoints together into a clear recommendation and moves the group to act.

• Effective Communication

  Communicates complex operational topics clearly to cross-functional audiences up to Director level. Produces ERDs, decks, and executive narratives that drive decisions.

• Scaling the Org

  Grows the team’s capacity by recruiting, building reusable tools and automation, and improving processes in ways that make the whole organization faster.
