Position Description:

The Service Management and Integration Lead plays a critical role in the transition and ongoing delivery of services to the client. The role establishes and embeds the service management operating model, integrates delivery across CGI and third-party providers, and provides operational leadership to the service management team. The role acts as a senior interface between CGI, the client, and the wider supplier ecosystem, ensuring effective governance, clear accountability, and consistent end-to-end service performance.

Your future duties and responsibilities:

Your main responsibilities as Service Management and Integration Lead are, but are not limited to, the following:

• Transition and Service Readiness: Lead the service management workstream during transition; define the operating model, governance forums, reporting, escalation paths, roles, processes, documentation, and service acceptance criteria; and drive transition risks, gaps, dependencies, and readiness concerns to resolution.

• Service Management Leadership: Lead and coordinate the service management team supporting the client, provide direction across incident, problem, change, service level, and continual improvement activities, and develop the maturity and capability of the service management function.

• Service Integration: Coordinate end-to-end service delivery across CGI teams, client stakeholders, and external providers, maintaining clear accountability across supplier and organizational boundaries.

• Supplier and Performance Management: Monitor supplier performance against SLAs, KPIs, contractual obligations, and agreed outcomes; address underperformance; and ensure corrective actions are owned and completed.

• Governance and Operational Control: Establish and operate effective service governance, operational reviews, reporting, escalation, risk management, and decision-making structures.

• Major Incident and Problem Leadership: Provide leadership for complex and cross-supplier incidents and problems, ensuring timely restoration, effective communication, root cause analysis, and sustainable corrective action.

• Client and Stakeholder Management: Act as a trusted but independent service management advisor, build effective relationships, communicate difficult messages clearly, and align stakeholders around agreed priorities and responsibilities.

• Constructive Challenge and Commercial Discipline: Challenge assumptions, decisions, and requests when necessary; set clear boundaries; and decline requests that are outside agreed scope, commercially inappropriate, operationally unsustainable, or contrary to service governance.

• Continual Improvement and Innovation: Maintain a prioritized improvement plan, use performance data and stakeholder feedback to identify opportunities, and promote automation, standardization, and measurable service improvements.

These responsibilities describe the general nature and level of the role and are not an exhaustive list. You may be required to perform other duties appropriate to the role as business and client needs evolve.
