About The Role

We’re looking for a Service Delivery Manager who can manage a portfolio of Communications and Managed Services customers and be the person they trust to keep things running well, improve what isn’t and speak plainly when it matters.

You will be confident to own customer relationships end to end, bring structure where it’s needed and calmly drive better outcomes when things get complex. This is a hands-on role with real influence, not a reporting-only position.

This role will suit someone with a strong operational background in IT or Managed Services such as service desk management or a team leader/service analyst/service coordinator who wants to step up into service delivery.

This role can be based in our Birmingham or Bolton office, we offer hybrid working with 3 days on site per week. You’ll be working in a team of 5, with no direct reports, with a focus on establishing what good service delivery looks like.

At Intercity, service delivery is about trust, accountability and doing right by customers, every day.

Key Responsibilities As a Service Delivery Manager

You’ll be the main point of contact for your customers and the person accountable for how service lands day to day.

That Means You Will

  • Build strong, honest relationships with customers at all levels
  • Lead service reviews and governance meetings that actually lead to action
  • Use service data to spot issues early and improve performance over time
  • Be the customer’s voice internally and hold teams to account on delivery
  • Own SLAs, KPIs, incidents and problem management outcomes
  • Identify service risks and deal with them before they escalate
  • Make sure services meet contractual and ITIL expectations
  • Support commercial conversations around renewals, changes and growth
  • Work closely with operations, account teams and presales to shape better services

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.
