🛡️THE ROLE

As Service Performance and Resilience Manager, you’ll play a critical role in keeping customer‑facing IT services fast, reliable, and always visible. You’ll define and embed best practice across performance, resilience, and observability—ensuring services not only meet today’s demands but are ready for what’s next.

Working closely with architecture, design, and delivery teams, you’ll ensure monitoring, alerting, and performance considerations are built into services from day one. You’ll also lead capacity and resilience management aligned to ITIL, helping ensure services remain scalable, dependable, and able to meet agreed service levels and continuity commitments.

🔍 Monitoring & Observability

You’ll own the evolution of end‑to‑end observability across customer services—driving better reliability, faster issue detection, and improved customer experience. This includes embedding monitoring and alerting into new and changing services, maturing observability tooling, and ensuring dashboards provide clear, actionable insight.

⚙️ Capacity & Performance

You’ll oversee capacity and performance management across business‑critical services and platforms. By developing forecasts, baselines, and trend analysis, you’ll identify risks early and drive data‑led improvements before performance impacts customers.

🛡️ Availability & Resilience

You’ll ensure resilience and availability are designed in—not bolted on. From defining requirements to monitoring key indicators, you’ll help ensure services can withstand failure, recover effectively, and continue to meet service level commitments.

🔄 Service Continuity & Risk

Supporting service continuity and recovery planning, you’ll identify and communicate performance and resilience risks, ensuring stakeholders have clear visibility and confidence in service integrity.

🤝 Collaboration & Continuous Improvement

You’ll work closely with Service Delivery, technical teams, suppliers, and customers to resolve issues and implement lasting improvements—providing clear reporting on service performance, risks, and progress.
