We're looking for an experienced Transition Director to lead a large-scale technology services transition for a major enterprise organisation.

This is a high-profile transformation programme focused on moving from a complex multi-supplier environment to a modern, integrated operating model.

You’ll be responsible for leading the end-to-end transition strategy, ensuring critical services are transferred safely while driving improvements in operational efficiency, governance and service quality from day one.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the overall transition strategy, governance and delivery across multiple technology service towers.
  • Develop and manage integrated transition plans, milestones, dependencies, readiness assessments and cutover activities.
  • Coordinate incumbent suppliers, delivery partners and internal stakeholders throughout the transition lifecycle.
  • Ensure knowledge transfer, shadowing, reverse shadowing, dual running and service acceptance activities are completed successfully.
  • Protect live service throughout transition, proactively managing risks, issues and dependencies.
  • Drive process improvements, automation opportunities and operational enhancements as part of the transition rather than simply replicating the existing environment.
  • Establish the foundations for the future operating model while maintaining business continuity.

Experience Required

  • Proven experience leading large-scale IT service transitions within complex enterprise environments.
  • Strong background managing multi-supplier outsourcing or managed service transitions.
  • Experience delivering structured transition programmes across infrastructure, workplace, cloud, networks, security and service management functions.
  • Excellent stakeholder management skills, with the ability to engage senior business and technology leaders.
  • Strong governance, risk management and programme delivery experience.
  • Experience embedding operational improvements and transformation during transition is highly desirable.
