Acting as a trusted link between the business and IT Digital Operations, you will help ensure that service priorities, investment decisions and delivery plans are aligned to business goals and deliver a positive experience for end users.
This is a senior, business-facing role for someone who combines strong service-management expertise with commercial awareness and a practical approach to operational improvement. You will oversee portfolio health, demand, resource capacity, performance and risk, while working closely with technology teams, Finance Business Partners and senior stakeholders to turn priorities into well-governed, deliverable plans.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
- Lead service portfolio management for an assigned business service line, maintaining a clear view of demand, resources, projects, enhancements and delivery priorities.
- Work with business stakeholders to understand current and future service needs, translating these into practical portfolio requirements, plans and roadmaps.
- Develop and manage forward-looking demand, resource and budget plans, ensuring delivery remains within agreed financial measures and portfolio constraints.
- Monitor portfolio health, service performance, capacity and utilisation, using data and service metrics to identify trends, risks and improvement opportunities.
- Analyse inbound incidents and service requests to understand recurring issues, service demand and opportunities to improve the end-user experience.
- Align IT service delivery and portfolio priorities with the strategic goals of the business service line.
- Build strong relationships with business leaders, IT leadership, Finance Business Partners, technical teams, customers and other delivery partners.
- Lead and improve the service journey for the business service line, providing feedback, escalating service or process issues where needed and following actions through to resolution.
- Prepare and communicate clear technology and business-alignment plans, portfolio updates,
performance reports and recommendations for a range of stakeholders.
- Support business-case development, cost-benefit analysis, investment evaluation and funding requests for new services, enhancements and service-management initiatives.
- Keep IT Digital Operations leadership informed on portfolio plans, status, funding, prioritisation, performance, risks and approvals.
- Stay current with relevant service-management trends and bring practical ideas that improve service delivery, value and efficiency.
