We need an IT Service Manager with ITIL4 certification or experience to work on our huge and varied IT estate in DWP.
It's fast-paced working environment that will test your ITSM skills. You'll be challenged to respond to changing priorities while still delivering for our millions of users and around 100,000 colleagues.
You will support colleagues across the DWP business to ensure that the required catalogue items are developed, deployed and maintained in line with the relevant policies, procedures, standards and agreements.
