Service Delivery Manager - 6 Month Fixed Term Contract

We’re looking for an experienced Service Delivery Manager to join our team on a 6 month fixed term contract.

In this role, you will take ownership of the delivery and performance of services for key customer accounts, ensuring high levels of service quality, operational performance and customer satisfaction. You’ll act as the primary service contact for clients, leading strong relationships with stakeholders while ensuring services are delivered in line with contractual commitments.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who thrives in a client-facing service leadership role, enjoys solving complex operational challenges and wants to make a real impact in a fast-paced services environment.

The Role

As Service Delivery Manager, you’ll be responsible for the end-to-end delivery of services for nominated customer accounts, ensuring service performance meets agreed SLAs and customer expectations.

You will work closely with internal delivery teams, third-party suppliers and customer stakeholders to ensure services run smoothly, issues are resolved quickly, and opportunities for improvement are identified and delivered.

You will also act as a senior escalation point for service issues, ensuring challenges are addressed proactively while maintaining strong customer confidence and trust.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
