- If you're ready to grow your career and help businesses grow better and faster, you'll fit right in.
- As the Software Support Delivery Manager, you'll be a people-first leader, managing a UK-based Application Support team in Birmingham.
- You'll be responsible for ensuring smooth daily operations, keeping performance on track, and creating a positive, high-performing team culture.
- Whilst this isn't a technical role, you should understand how to lead a B2B support function, manage escalations, and deliver a great customer experience at scale.
- You'll oversee daily operations, including the balancing of workloads, meeting SLAs, and maintaining strong response times for customers.
- In addition, you will handle customer escalations where necessary, and incidents with clarity and professionalism, whilst improving processes, documentation, and service consistency across the team.

- Your background is rooted in B2B customer service, and while you might not be a technical expert, you understand what great service looks like and how to deliver it at scale.
- When things get tough, like major incidents or high-stakes escalations, you're the calm in the storm. You know how to communicate clearly, keep customers informed, and guide your team through it.
- You are familiar with support tools and CRM systems, and you know how to use them to keep things running smoothly.
- You bring structure to chaos. Whether it's implementing better processes or helping your team navigate change, you're someone who creates clarity and momentum.
- You lead with transparency, fairness and empathy, and people trust you because of it.
- Bonus points if you've worked with ITIL or other service management practices, but it's your practical experience and leadership that matter most.
- Starting salary of £55,000 - £60,000 per annum.
- Hybrid working model, with 3 days in the office and 2 remote.
