Description
Job Title: Service Delivery Manager
Location: London
Company: BritBox International
Reporting to: SVP, Technology & Content Delivery
Contract Type: 12 Month Fixed-term contract
About Us
Welcome to BritBox, the ultimate streaming destination for British TV. We bring you an unparalleled collection of thoughtfully curated entertainment, cleverly crafted and brimming with the kind of charm, wit and heart only the Brits could deliver.
Born from the BBC, we’re on a mission to share authentically British stories with audiences across the world. Since our launch in 2017, we've quickly expanded to seven markets including North America, Australia, and the Nordics. We are a small but mighty streamer that punches above our weight, available on every major platform and even shining among the bright lights of Times Square—and we’re just getting started!
Now, here’s where you come in: if you’re passionate about entertainment, thrive in a fast-paced environment, and want to play a meaningful role in our remarkable growth story, this is your chance. Join our team and help us bring the best of British TV to fans everywhere.
Job Purpose
We are looking for a Service Manager to own end-to-end service management across BritBox International's technology platform. You will be responsible for both ITSM processes (incident, problem, and change management) and service delivery (vendor relationships, SLA performance, and operational quality), managing a small team of 2–5 people and reporting to the SVP of Technology and Operations.
This is not a traditional service management role. We are seeking someone who will own the AI strategy for service operations and be hands-on in implementing it. Experience with agentic AI frameworks, LLM-powered automation, and tools like Claude Code is a core requirement — not a nice-to-have. You will deploy AI agents for automated incident triage, build agentic workflows that transform how we detect, resolve, and prevent issues, and bring predictive intelligence into a platform that serves millions of viewers across seven markets.

Responsibilities
Service Management & Operations
- Own and continuously improve ITSM processes across incident, problem, change, and release management, ensuring alignment with ITIL best practices.
- Lead major incident management — coordinating cross-functional response, driving resolution, and delivering root-cause analysis and post-incident reviews.
- Maintain and evolve the service catalogue, ensuring all technology services are clearly defined, documented, and understood across the organisation.
- Monitor platform health, availability, and performance across all BritBox markets, proactively identifying risks before they impact viewers.
- Coordinate with engineering, product, infrastructure, and content teams to ensure service continuity during releases, migrations, and scaling events.
- Manage relationships with third-party vendors and technology partners (CDN providers, cloud infrastructure, platform partners), holding them accountable to contracted SLAs.
- Define, track, and report on service KPIs including platform uptime, Mean Time to Resolve (MTTR), Mean Time to Identify (MTTI), and customer satisfaction metrics.
- Produce regular service performance reporting for senior leadership, translating operational data into actionable insights.
- Drive service improvement plans based on trend analysis, incident patterns, and feedback from internal stakeholders and viewers.
- Negotiate and manage vendor contracts, ensuring BritBox receives optimal value and service quality.
- Design and implement an AI-first service operations strategy using agentic frameworks and LLM-powered tools such as Claude Code, autonomous service agents, and AI-assisted runbooks.
- Deploy AI agents for automated incident triage, classification, and first-line resolution — reducing mean time to resolve and freeing the team to focus on complex, high-impact issues.
- Develop and maintain ITIL-aligned process documentation, including service management policies, operational procedures, and escalation matrices.
- Establish governance frameworks for AI tooling in service operations, including prompt engineering standards, agent guardrails, and responsible AI practices.
- Drive continual service improvement through retrospectives, data-driven insights, and industry benchmarking.
- Own stakeholder communication during major incidents and significant changes, ensuring timely, clear, and accurate updates to technical and non-technical audiences.
Essential experience:
- Experience in IT service management or service delivery, with experience in a leadership or management role.
- Proven hands-on experience with AI-driven service management tools and agentic frameworks — including but not limited to Claude Code, LLM-powered automation, AI service agents, or equivalent AI-native operations tooling. This is a core requirement.
- Strong understanding of agentic AI architectures and how to apply them in a service operations context (autonomous triage, predictive analytics, self-healing workflows, intelligent escalation).
- Solid ITSM foundation with practical experience applying ITIL v3/v4 principles in a technology organisation.
- A calm, authoritative presence during high-pressure incidents who instils confidence across technical and non-technical teams.
- A forward-thinking leader who sees AI not as a buzzword but as a practical, transformative tool for service operations.
- Someone who thrives in a fast-paced, evolving environment and is comfortable with ambiguity.
- A strong communicator who can navigate vendor relationships, lead incident responses, and report to senior leadership with equal confidence.
- A team builder who invests in growing people and fostering a collaborative, psychologically safe team culture.
- Genuine curiosity and a continuous learning mindset — particularly around emerging AI and automation technologies.
