About the Team Hiring

IT & Business Transformation is a global function reporting to the Graitec CEO, made up of four teams: Business

Transformation, Data & AI, Information Security, and IT Operations & Platforms. Together we own the delivery

capability behind how Graitec operates and we drive Graitec’s continued transformation.

We work as fusion teams and as one with the wider organisation: technology and business colleagues working

towards the same goals and outcomes.

IT Operations & Platforms touches the whole company every day: business platforms, cloud and infrastructure, the

digital workplace, and end user computing and support. That spans Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations and CRM,

the professional services stack, HR systems, customer and web platforms, the service desk, Azure, networking and

identity. The team covers EMEA and North America and is shaped around the business domains it serves.

Overview

Business Purpose & Value Contribution

The Manager, IT Service Desk leads Graitec's global IT support: the service every colleague relies on to get their

work done, across Europe and North America. The role owns the service desk end to end: the team, the tools,

the processes and, above all, the experience colleagues have when they ask for help.

The priority is to turn a reactive, ticket-driven service into a customer-focused one that fixes things first time,

automates the routine and finds problems before colleagues do. That means a modern ITSM tool in place of CRM-

based ticketing, ITIL practices sized for a mid-sized business, published service levels, and self-service and

automation that resolve common requests before they reach the team.

This is a hands-on leadership role, leading IT support specialists across both regions. Success is measured by

how colleagues rate the service, not by the number of tickets closed.

Key Outcomes Expected

What success looks like in the first 12 months

· A modern ITSM tool live, with service levels published and met in both regions and the backlog cleared

· High levels of first-time fix, measured and rising, with every escalation reviewed so more is resolved at

first contact

· Colleague satisfaction measured on every ticket and trending towards the 95% CSAT target, with

feedback acted on and reported monthly

· A high and growing share of requests resolved without an agent, through self-service, automation or an AI

assistant in Teams

· Common device and application issues detected and fixed automatically, before colleagues raise a ticket

· Joiners, movers and leavers handled to an agreed SLA with HR and the Work Experience Partners, with

new colleagues productive from day one

· One global team working to shared standards, with clear coverage across time zones and no single points

of failure

Responsibilities

Service Experience

· Lead the global service desk with a customer service mindset: responsive, clear and judged by the

colleague's experience

· Publish and manage service levels and a service catalogue, and act on performance, satisfaction and

feedback data

· Own communication to colleagues during major incidents, keeping people informed until service is

restored

ITSM & ITIL Practice

· Lead the selection, implementation and adoption of a modern ITSM tool, migrating from CRM-based

ticketing

· Implement ITIL practices in proportion to Graitec's size: incident, request, problem, change, knowledge

and asset management

· Design categories, workflows, approvals and reporting so the data shows where demand comes from and how to reduce it

Automation & Proactive Service

· Make first-time fix the norm, giving the first line the knowledge, access and tools to resolve issues at first contact, and reviewing every escalation

· Automate common requests and fixes end to end, such as password resets, software installs, access approvals and device set-up, using the ITSM tool, Power Automate and Intune

· Introduce an AI assistant in Teams as the front door for IT support, measuring the effect on demand and resolution time

· Monitor device and application health to find and fix issues before colleagues notice, with scripted remediation and early communication

· Analyse the top ticket drivers and remove their root causes with the platform and infrastructure teams

Joiners, Movers, Leavers & Assets

· Run the joiner, mover and leaver process with HR and the Work Experience Partners, from device readiness to access removal

· Standardise devices across countries, with zero-touch set-up through Autopilot and access granted and removed automatically from HR data and role

· Keep hardware and software asset records accurate through the full lifecycle, supporting licence optimisation and audit evidence

Team Leadership

· Lead, coach and develop a distributed team of IT support specialists across Europe and North America

· Plan coverage across time zones and offices, with clear escalation to second and third line teams and suppliers

· Manage support suppliers and remote support tools to service levels and cost

Security & Compliance

· Build security into daily service, from identity checks and access requests to device compliance, with Information Security

· Provide the service desk evidence needed for SOC 2, ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials Plus, such as access, change and asset records

Responsibilities

Skills & Experience

· 5+ years in IT support or service management, including 2+ years leading a service desk team, ideally

across countries and time zones

· Strong ITIL-based practice, applied pragmatically, with ITIL (v3 or V4) Foundation as a minimum

· Has implemented or migrated an ITSM tool, such as Halo, Freshservice or Jira Service Management,

including workflows, catalogue and reporting

· A customer service mindset: clear, empathetic communication and a track record of raising satisfaction

· Hands-on knowledge of the Microsoft workplace: Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Intune and Autopilot, on

Windows

· Has raised first-time fix and self-service rates, running the service on data: service levels, backlog, satisfaction and trends

· Hands-on automation: PowerShell, Power Automate or ITSM workflows, Intune scripts and remediations, and AI-assisted supporT

· Experience of joiner, mover and leaver processes and IT asset management

· Calm under pressure, organised, and able to lead a remote team to consistent standards

Also valued

· ITIL 4 Managing Professional or Practitioner modules

· HDI Support Center Manager or KCS certification

· Microsoft 365 Endpoint Administrator (MD-102) certification

· Digital employee experience tools, such as Intune Endpoint Analytics or Nexthink

· Experience in a software, SaaS or professional services business, or a growing multi-country group
