Travis Perkins Group is seeking an exceptional Software Service Manager to join our Platforms and Service function and play a pivotal role in enabling our business strategy.

This is far more than a traditional technical support role. You'll be a trusted partner to business stakeholders, a champion for service excellence and security.

You will be a key driver of modern operational frameworks across a vast network of internal teams and third-party vendors.

If you are a strategic, technology-minded service leader who loves turning metrics into continuous improvements, managing complex stakeholder relationships, and ensuring high-quality software reliability, we'd love to hear from you!

The Opportunity

As Software Service Manager, reporting into the Head of Enterprise SaaS, you will hold end-to-end accountability for the delivery, performance, and continuous improvement of software-based services across the Travis Perkins Group.

Service is our number one priority, and in this role, your success will directly protect and impact company revenue. You will act as the primary liaison between technical teams, external partners, and business stakeholders. You will also have the opportunity to showcase your leadership by deputising for the Head of Enterprise SaaS when required.

What You'll Be Doing

• Service Mindset & Transition: Ensuring the seamless transition of new software initiatives into the active support model, putting proper processes in place to maintain high service levels.
• Stakeholder Engagement: Building strong, collaborative working relationships across all levels of the organisation, managing expectations, and balancing commercial demands.

• Continuous Improvement: Utilising key performance indicators and metrics to identify and execute on continuous efficiency gains across software delivery.
• Enterprise Leadership: Providing clear direction across all SaaS initiatives, motivating teams toward a common vision, and stepping up to deputise for department leadership.
• Partner Governance: Proactively managing third-party partners to ensure they align with our standard ways of working and fully adhere to contractual agreements.
• Feedback Integration: Evaluating consumer feedback and utilising data analysis to modify processes, manage stakeholder expectations, and solve complex operational problems.
