IT MSP Service Delivery Manager - Transformation Process

Build & Own the Whole Service Operation. Not Just the Queue

Most Service Delivery Manager roles ask you to maintain what's already there.

This one doesn't.

We're looking for an experienced MSP Service Delivery Manager to take ownership of our Managed Services operation, strengthen how we deliver support, develop our people and build a more proactive, customer-focused service that scales with our growth.

You'll have genuine authority to improve service delivery, develop people, refine operational processes and work directly alongside our CTO to shape the future of our Managed Services business.

If you've ever wanted the opportunity to build and improve an MSP rather than simply maintain one, we'd love to hear from you.

Who We Are

Nexian is a leading technology partner specialising in Managed IT Services, Microsoft Cloud, Cyber Security, AI, Automation and Digital Transformation.

We help ambitious organisations modernise, secure and optimise their technology through a combination of strategic consultancy, managed services and technical expertise.

Whilst you'll have strong technical credibility, this is not a hands-on engineering role. Instead, you'll lead the people, processes and service operations that enable our technical teams to perform at their best.
