Head of IT Service Management When registering to this job board you will be redirected to the online application form. Please ensure that this is completed in full in order that your application can be reviewed. Head of IT Service Management You will report to the Director of Group IT and sit on the IT Leadership Group. You will Head up the IT Service Management function for Group IT. You will work closely with Architecture, Infrastructure & Operations, Delivery & Change, Procurement, NA and ATGE Europe teams, as well as managed service providers, software platform vendors, and the venue and business-unit IT customers you serve. You will partner closely with the Head of IT Delivery & Change on the IT Change Management process and the service-transition handoff into operational service. 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. You must be a self-starter, comfortable in a fast-paced and dynamic environment, and able to carry the Exec-facing service narrative - uptime, customer experience, and vendor accountability - as well as operate it day-to-day. You will be a confident communicator across executive, business, technical and external supplier audiences, mindful of different communication styles for different audiences. 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.

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.

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.

Strengthen Oversight and Value Across Bristol's City-Owned Companies Bristol Holding Ltd (BHL) with Bristol City Council, is seeking an experienced finance and assurance leader to provide independent oversight, robust governance and clear shareholder assurance across Bristol City Council's wholly owned companies. This is a senior role with high autonomy and significant influence, supporting better commercial decision making and long-term value for the people of Bristol. If you are a technically strong, commercially minded finance professional who can operate confidently across complex stakeholder environments, this role offers challenge, visibility, and clear public purpose. About Bristol Holding Ltd Since 2015, Bristol City Council has used local authority trading companies to deliver services, drive innovation and reinvest value back into the city. As sole shareholder, the Council sets strategic direction and oversees performance through defined governance arrangements. BHL supports the Council in this role, providing oversight, assurance, and a small number of shared services across the group. It is the parent company of two high-profile organisations. Bristol Waste Company delivers recycling, waste collection, street cleansing, and facilities management across the city. It employs over 800 colleagues and operates at significant scale, delivering around 17 million collections each year. The business is entering a period of transformation, including contract renewal, investment in fleet and infrastructure, and responding to evolving regulation. Goram Homes is Bristol's commercial housing delivery company, focused on accelerating new homes, including social and affordable housing. It is moving into a phase of increased delivery through joint ventures and partnerships, playing a key role in addressing housing need and supporting sustainable growth. The role Following a successful period of interim leadership, BHL is now recruiting a permanent Finance and Assurance Director to build on strengthened governance and improved reporting. This is a senior, influential role operating with a high degree of independence.
