  • Shape ongoing improvement opportunities for client environments — feeding into QBRs, roadmap cycles, and future enhancements.
  • Proactively advise on technology and operational improvements relevant to the contract lifecycle. 5. Change & Transformation Design
  • Define structured change processes for large estates, multisite rollouts, migrations, and operational transitions.

  • Work closely with Sales, PreSales, Commercial, Legal, Delivery and Service Management throughout the bid lifecycle.
  • Support the creation of service schedules, operating model descriptions, SLAs, and implementation plans used in proposals and governance packs.
  • Contribute to cost models for service elements (e.g., support effort, field engineering, monitoring, service tooling). 7. Client Engagement
  • Participate in client workshops to translate operational requirements into service designs.
  • Present service models, clarify assumptions, and ensure shared understanding of the endstate operating model.

Skills & Experience

  • Strong background in service design, operating models, and managed service frameworks.
  • Experience supporting complex bids with multiple service elements.
  • Ability to bridge technical network design with operational realities and commercial viability.
  • Excellent communicator able to engage senior stakeholders internally and externally.
  • Familiarity with ITIL and managed service environments (monitoring, SLAs, incident/change).
  • Experience in multisite environments (hospitality, MOD, housing, leisure, public sector) highly beneficial.
