💼 The opportunity:

We are looking for a Service Manager who will act as the key point of reference for the operational and organisational management of IT services supporting Poste Italiane’s banking and transactional core. You will oversee the processes that ensure the reliability of accounting operations, financial transactions, banking products, and user data.

Your goal will be to guarantee operational continuity, process consistency, and activity traceability by coordinating teams and stakeholders to maintain a stable, efficient, and compliant platform.

💰 RAL: €37k - €50K

💻 Responsibilities:

• Organizational Management of Release Activities
  Coordinate operational activities and oversee release processes across accounting, transactions, banking products, and user data. Ensure that each release is properly planned, tracked, and executed to guarantee stability and compliance.
• Escalation Handling and Cross‑Functional Coordination
  Serve as the primary point of contact for operational and technical escalations. Engage development, infrastructure, product, and compliance teams to resolve issues promptly, maintaining clear and consistent communication.
• Shift Planning and Internal Coordination
  Manage the team’s shift schedules, ensuring full coverage, proper rotation, and continuity of service. Guarantee clear, structured, and well‑documented handovers between shifts.
• Incident Workflow Management
  Supervise the full incident management lifecycle – detection, classification, communication, and resolution – working closely with the Incident Manager and technical teams to minimize impacts on core services.
• Service Metrics Monitoring and Impact Assessment
  Monitor key service metrics (SLA, response times, transaction volumes, error rates, availability) to evaluate system performance. Communicate impacts, severity, and priorities clearly to stakeholders in cases of service degradation.
• Operational Communication Control
  Ensure that emails, tickets, reports, and internal communications are managed in an organised and traceable manner, maintaining full visibility and consistent follow‑up.
• Continuous Improvement of Service Management Processes
  Review processes, KPIs, and post‑incident analyses to identify improvement opportunities. Contribute to the evolution of procedures, tools, and documentation in line with business needs.

🛠️ Requirements:

• 3‑5+ years of experience in Service Management, Operations, or Incident/Release Coordination, ideally in banking, FinTech, or regulated environments.
• Knowledge of financial domain processes: accounting movements, transactions, banking products, and customer master data.
• Ability to interpret service metrics and operational KPIs, assess incident impact, and communicate priorities clearly.
• Strong process orientation with solid understanding of ITIL or similar frameworks.
• Excellent organisational and communication skills, ensuring clear tracking of communications, tickets, and tasks.
• Ability to coordinate cross‑functional teams and manage complex situations with clarity and focus.
• Flexibility to handle incidents outside standard working hours.
