  • Coordinate with internal support teams, service partners, and third-party vendors to restore network services.
  • Provide timely, clear, and accurate updates to customers throughout the incident journey.
  • Take ownership of reported issues through to resolution, ensuring accountability and quality outcomes.
  • Identify in-scope activities, apply sound judgement, and make timely decisions during incident resolution.
  • Work effectively in a 24/7 shift environment, including night shifts, to ensure uninterrupted service coverage.

Who you are
