We do this by purchasing and distributing multiple millions of long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLINs) at a time in nationwide universal coverage campaigns. This is the most cost-effective way of preventing malaria. AMF receives donations from the public and in the last financial year received US$147 million and, in our history, now over US$820 million. AMF is particularly data-focused and monitors and reports on net use and drives and supports innovation to improve the effectiveness of malaria programmes.

You will be an experienced Head of IT Service Delivery, Head of Service Management, or senior Service Delivery leader with a proven track record across hybrid IT operating models, multi-vendor SIAM, ITSM platform direction and managed service performance - within a mid- to large-enterprise environment. You will ensure the end-to-end service performance of Group IT in a hybrid-sourced operating model owning service standards, vendor accountability, ITSM and the customer-facing service experience across the UK, North America, Germany and Spain. You will have proven experience in leading multi-vendor service operations, designing and governing SLA XLA frameworks, and translating executive-level service expectations into measurable, customer-facing service standards. This is a senior leadership role responsible for the service-management spine of Group IT - translating the Executive's "run it like you own it" intent into a durable, accountable and customer-experience-led service organisation. You will operationalise the IT Service Management strategy, design and govern the SIAM model across ATG's MSPs, and lead the build of out-of-hours service capability across the Group. Experience of SIAM governance, multi-vendor MSP management and modern ITSM platform ownership is essential.

Specific experience in live entertainment, sports, hospitality or other venue-led industries, and a passion for the arts and creative industries, would be an advantage in your application. Key responsibilities/Deliverables Strategic Leadership: Develop and communicate a strategic vision for IT Service Management in a hybrid-sourced operating model, ensuring alignment with Group business objectives and the Exec's "run it like you own it" service ethos. Service Management & Vendor Governance: Own the Service Integration and Management (SIAM) operating model across ATG's managed service providers - governing Service Integration and Delivery, Service Operations and IT Asset Lifecycle Management, Service Management and Governance, and the technology platform that integrates them. Ensure services are designed, transitioned and operated to contractually committed performance, quality and end-to-end outcome standards (SLA, XLA and business-outcome metrics). Govern MSP performance against SLA, XLA (Experience Level Agreement) and end-to-end outcome frameworks across ServiceDesk, ITSM, Application Support, Cloud Infrastructure Operations, Network Operations Centre (NoC) and Security Operations Centre (SoC). Drive contractually committed business outcomes, change success rate, CMDB accuracy and cross-provider collaboration metrics; initiate corrective action and contractual remediation where required. Own the Group ITSM platform direction - a centralised SIAM dashboard with single-source-of-truth visibility across all providers (ticketing, service catalogue, CMDB, problem / change / release / configuration management) - integrated with supplier platforms, augmented by AI / GenAI and experience management tooling, and underpinned by ITIL 4 process maturity. Lead service reporting to the IT Leadership Group and business stakeholders - uptime, customer experience, vendor accountability and service-quality KPIs. Act as the Group escalation point for major service incidents and vendor performance failures; lead post-incident review, root-cause analysis and continuous improvement plans. Own service management for in-Venue technologies - Audio-Visual, Accessibility, ePOS and other front-of-house and back-of-house venue technology - and manage the Group IT relationship with Venue Operations Business Directors as the primary internal customer for venue-tech service performance. Out-of-Hours Service & Capability Build: Design and stand up Group out-of-hours service capability - making the sourcing decision (follow-the-sun in-house, MSP overflow, or hybrid) and owning ongoing governance, SLA and cost. Position ATG's IT service model as a deliberate shift from a primarily outsourced posture to a partial-insourced (hybrid) model. Lead the build and ongoing maturity of the internal ITSM capability - process, tooling, governance, performance management and continuous improvement - augmented by GenAI (MS CoPilot & Claude) and automation, so that Group IT increasingly owns the service-management spine end-to-end. Team, Application Support & Financial Management: Lead the Application Support function operationally (the Application Support Manager team), with matrixed delivery into Delivery & Change for change-driven work. Drive the AI-native, technically adept redesign of Application Support in line with the Group capability strategy. Manage the service-line Opex envelope, lead FinOps coordination with Infrastructure & Operations on managed-service cost, and contribute to Group IT financial accounting and budget planning. Establish and maintain robust ITSM frameworks (ITIL 4, SIAM, ISO 20000-aligned where appropriate) and ensure best practice is followed across regions. Stakeholder Engagement: Act as the bridge between the business, IT teams and managed service providers; collaborate with venue, theatre and corporate stakeholders at all levels; serve as the senior service-experience voice in Exec, Group leadership and Providence-facing forums. Your skills, qualities, and experience Essential A proven track record of experience supporting a complex IT estate in a senior service delivery, service management or service integration leadership role. Strong strategic leadership with a proven track record designing and operating hybrid IT operating models and multi-vendor SIAM ecosystems, including SIAM advisory, mixed managed services and build-operate-transfer (BOT) contracting models.

Service Management and Governance: SLA, XLA (Experience Level Agreement) and end-to-end outcome frameworks; contractually committed business outcomes versus traditional SLAs; incentives and penalties tied to cross-resolver-group outcomes; commercial and contractual familiarity with multi-vendor governance. Enhance Delivery Through Technology: build & operate a centralised SIAM dashboard and observability with single-source-of-truth visibility across all providers; AI / agentic AI / GenAI augmentation; integration with supplier platforms; automation initiatives across service operations.
