This is a high-impact leadership role where you will take ownership of the continued development of Icomera’s managed services. You will define the service strategy, operating model, and roadmap, and lead the transition towards a more structured, platform-based and automated service setup. The role involves close collaboration with product, engineering, and commercial functions, with responsibility for aligning services across a global organization.

At Icomera, managed services cover the end-to-end delivery and continuous improvement of our connectivity and digital services, including service design, operations, and customer-facing performance.

About the Role

You will lead and develop Icomera’s managed services in an international and technically complex environment. The role includes end-to-end responsibility for how services are structured, developed, and governed.

A key part of the role is to lead the transformation from a more operational and ticket-driven setup to a scalable, platform-oriented and automation-supported service model. You will define service offerings, SLAs, delivery models, and ways of working while aligning services with product direction and business needs.

You will work closely with stakeholders across product, engineering, sales, and finance in a global organization.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and evolve managed services, operating models, and governance
• Drive service transformation, automation, and operational improvements
• Own and develop ITSM processes and ServiceNow-related workflows
• Lead and support team leads across service domains
• Ensure SLA adherence and service quality globally
• Coordinate suppliers, partners, and key stakeholders
• Support customer-facing activities and continuous service improvements

Requirements

You bring extensive experience from service management or managed services in technical environments, together with a strong track record of driving change and transformation.

You are comfortable working across multiple functions and stakeholders and know how to create structure, alignment, and scalable ways of working in evolving organizations.

You also have experience leading managers and developing teams, while balancing strategic direction with a pragmatic and hands‑on approach.

It is important that you have experience from environments where services are closely connected to software, platforms, or digital products.

More specifically, you have:

• 10+ years of experience in service management, IT operations, or managed services
• Experience leading change and transformation initiatives in technical environments
• Strong understanding of ITSM frameworks and service delivery practices
• Experience working with ServiceNow or similar platforms
• Experience working across product, engineering, and business functions
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills

Meritorious experience

• Automation, AIOps, or AI-related service development
• International and distributed organizations
• Multi‑vendor or partner‑based environments
• Connectivity, SaaS, telecom, or related industries

Who You Are

You are a structured and pragmatic leader who enjoys driving change in evolving environments. You combine strategic thinking with a hands‑on approach and are comfortable collaborating across teams, functions, and stakeholders in an international setting.

You create trust through clear communication, collaboration, and the ability to move initiatives forward.
