  • Lead and manage the incident and change management processes for the platform, including 24/7 support.
  • Manage vendor relationships and ensure compliance with service level agreements (SLAs). Develop and oversee product metrics, KPIs, and performance targets to assess our incident management outsourcing and challenge our partners to improve.
  • Foster a collaborative environment with ServiceNow and manage the operational aspects of a large-scale SaaS platform.
  • Act as a key representative for the platform, both internally and externally, providing product updates and representing the company at industry events. Serve as a primary contact for various co-development product advisory councils.

Qualifications and Skills

  • Academic degree (Bachelor's or Master's) in Information Technology, Software Engineering, or related fields.
  • 5+ years of professional experience in system operations.
  • Demonstrated experience in managing and leading ServiceNow platforms and teams.
  • Strong understanding of the ServiceNow platform and its products as essential components of customer support and cloud operations. Familiarity with Coveo, SAP4Me, and BTP Cloud integration is advantageous.

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities with a strategic mindset.
  • Exceptional interpersonal and communication skills are essential. Proficiency in English (both oral and written) is required; advanced German language skills are a plus.
  • Ability to promote a team-oriented, collaborative environment and inspire motivation among team members.

About Your Team

Our team is dedicated to harmonizing and optimizing SAP's support and cloud operations processes, along with aspects of security operations, on a user-centric and innovative platform. We focus on delivering a simple, stable, effective, and desirable customer service management experience for both internal SAP employees and external customers. Central to this mission is the third-party SaaS platform ServiceNow and its applications, including IT Service Management (ITSM), IT Operations Management (ITOM), and Security Operations Management (SecOps).
