Support Team – Senior Manager in Leeds

We’re looking for a Support Team – Senior Manager to join our team in Leeds on a permanent basis. This is a hybrid role, with two days in the office and three days working remotely each week.

In this role, you’ll take ownership of the run and maintain function across Liberty Blume’s bespoke products and solutions. Our live systems, both internal and client-facing are driven by key service metrics that need to be closely monitored and consistently met. You’ll lead a predominantly offshore team, supported by a small UK-based oversight layer. Your day-to-day will focus on service performance, escalation management, and driving continuous improvement. You’ll play a key role in ensuring nothing falls through the cracks, while building scalable, robust processes to support ongoing growth.

While this isn’t a development role, you’ll need a strong understanding of how our platforms work, where they can fail and how issues are resolved. You’ll use this knowledge to coach and upskill the team, ensuring they are confident in troubleshooting and resolving incidents. You’ll also collaborate with Engineering to define service acceptance criteria and ensure a smooth transition of new tools and solutions into run and maintain.

What will you be doing?

• Take ownership of day-to-day service delivery across Liberty Blume’s custom products, ensuring consistent performance and reliability.
• Lead incident triage, escalation, and resolution, keeping issues moving and stakeholders informed.

• Manage change processes for support-led fixes and patches.
• Set clear shift patterns and escalation routes to enable seamless, always-on support.
• Run regular team reviews covering performance, capacity, and development.
• Identify capability gaps and partner with Tech leadership to address them through training, process improvements, or hiring.
• Deliver regular service performance reporting, including SLA metrics, incident volumes, MTTR, and change success rates.
• Present insights and outcomes at service reviews with senior stakeholders, including the CTO.
• Maintain an up-to-date support register covering key issues, changes, and team capacity.
• Drive continuous improvement initiatives to reduce ticket volumes, improve resolution times, and increase first-time fix rates.
• Support the evolution of the support model and recharge framework, ensuring scalability and transparency.
• Act as the main point of contact for service-related escalations across the business and clients.

Essential

• Experience supporting GCP-hosted platforms.
• Background in BPO, FinTech, or financial operations environments.
