*Experience leading geographically dispersed or matrix-managed teams
*Proven ability to drive customer-focused behaviours and service excellence
*Strong leadership and relationship-building skills


The ideal candidate will bring a hands-on, service-led mindset, and enjoy working in a fast-paced, evolving environment where culture and customer outcomes are central.


Why join?
*Shape the future of service delivery in a business going through rapid growth and integration
*High visibility role with direct exposure to senior leadership and real influence on strategy
*Be part of a genuinely customer-first organisation where feedback drives improvement, not blame
