About the job
Are you a Service Delivery leader who truly makes an impact?
We seek an individual who remains composed during escalations, possesses commercial savvy without being unapproachable, and operates effectively without the rigidity that comes with traditional roles.

We are on the lookout for a high-achieving Service Delivery Lead to oversee one of our national teams (approximately 12 to 15 talented individuals), primarily working with our Philippines-based team. You will be the pulse of operations for a portfolio of clients, focusing mainly on support but also diving into other business areas as opportunities arise.
If you thrive in a culture of accountability and autonomy, where micromanagement is a thing of the past, then we encourage you to read further.
