YOUR IMPACT

  • Act as the primary point of contact for customer stakeholders, leading service reviews and managing escalations 

  • Coordinate global and cross-functional delivery teams (applications, infrastructure, cloud) to ensure seamless service execution 

  • Lead major incident and escalation management, ensuring timely resolution and clear customer communication 

  • Use service data (KPIs, SLAs, reporting) to monitor performance, identify risks, and drive improvements 

  • Drive continuous service improvement initiatives, enhancing efficiency, quality, and customer experience 

  • Contribute to a culture of ownership, accountability, and service excellence 

 

WHAT YOU NEED TO SUCCEED 

  • Proven experience owning or supporting service delivery in a managed services or ITSM environment 

  • Clear understanding of SLAs, KPIs, and service performance management 

  • Experience interacting with customer stakeholders, including participation in service reviews and handling escalations 

  • Ability to deliver in complex environments, working with distributed or offshore teams and multiple technical domains 

  • Experience supporting major incidents and customer escalations under pressure 

  • Demonstrated contribution to service improvements, optimizations, or change initiatives 

  • Strong communication, problem-solving, and stakeholder management skills 

  • Fluency in Italian and English is required; further languages, e.g. German, Spanish etc., are a strong plus 

 

ONE LAST THING: 

OpenText is more than just a corporation — it’s a global community where trust is foundational, the bar is raised, and outcomes are owned. In this role, you will have the opportunity to shape how services are delivered to some of the world’s leading companies, combining customer focus with operational excellence.
