As the leader of the team responsible for globalizing and managing Service Management and Operational practices across the Sage IT organization, my key responsibilities include: • Managing the Network Operations Centre, ensuring effective monitoring of servers, networks, and services across the global Sage estate. • Overseeing Incident, Change, and Problem Management processes to maximise service availability and quality. • Maintaining an IT Technical Service Catalogue and Configuration Management Database (CMDB) for streamlined service delivery and accurate asset management. • Leveraging AI Ops to enhance service performance and proactively address potential issues. • Implementing advanced IT Service Monitoring techniques to ensure high availability, optimal performance, and adherence to service metrics. • Establishing a close working relationship with the Cyber Defence Operations Team to address Zero Day vulnerabilities and high-risk security threats. • Embedding operational frameworks and standards across the IT organization to promote efficiency and consistency. Key Accomplishments: • Seamless implementation of PagerDuty, integrating it with ServiceNow and monitoring tools to streamline incident management and response, reducing the MTTA (Mean Time to Acknowledge) from 30 minutes to 3 minutes. • Conducted a comprehensive assessment of an existing poorly managed vendor, documenting their tasks and activities, and creating a detailed Statement of Work. This facilitated a smooth transition from staff augmentation to an MSP agreement which now exceeds all SLA\'s and KPI\'s. • Introduction of Atlassian Status Page, providing real-time transparency on service availability to the business. • Modernization of incident communications through automation, resulting in effective and timely updates. • Led the Utilisation of PowerApps to create user-friendly IT asset management tools and an IT Portal as MS Teams apps, enhancing accessibility and productivity.
