• Build and maintain strong relationships with business stakeholders, client representatives and operational teams to support positive customer outcomes.
• Act as the primary liaison between technical and non-technical stakeholders, ensuring information is communicated clearly, accurately and appropriately.
• Provide regular issue status updates, progress reports, risk assessments and issue summaries to key stakeholders.
• Facilitate collaboration between business, technology and support teams to ensure alignment on priorities, actions and outcomes.
• Contribute to team meetings by sharing progress, highlighting risks and dependencies, and providing recommendations on potential solutions.
• Investigate and analyse complex business and service issues, identifying root causes and implementing effective containment and remediation plans.
• Analyse issue data, service trends and recurring issues to identify opportunities for process improvement and incident reduction.
• Use analytical tools, including SQL where appropriate, to support investigations, operational reporting and data-driven decision-making.
• Develop recommendations and potential solutions for operational challenges, ensuring issues are thoroughly assessed before escalation.
• Provide guidance, support and knowledge sharing to colleagues on triage processes, reporting practices and service improvement activities.
• Assist in onboarding and coaching team members to promote consistency, capability development and adherence to best practice.
• Apply broad knowledge of issue management, operational processes, service management principles and reporting techniques to resolve moderately complex assignments.
