About the role

  • Location: - Teddington, United Kingdom
  • Vacancy Type: - Permanent
  • Salary Details: - Starting from £40,138 dependant on experience
  • About the Role -

    Our world-leading Time & Frequency department is seeking a Service Operations Analyst with proven expertise in IT service management (ITSM).  

    This is an exceptional opportunity to join the global authority in precision timing at a defining moment for UK digital infrastructure. 

    Backed by a government investment of £180 million in the National Timing Centre (NTC) programme, we are developing a world-first resilient time distribution capability that will provide industry with a robust complement to satellite systems (such as GPS) – which are increasingly vulnerable to disruption from solar storms, jamming and spoofing. 

    This will underpin essential services, including:

    • Telecommunications, 
    • Online banking, 
    • Emergency response, 
    • Transport networks, and 
    • Wider digital and data-driven operations.

    Together, these services form the backbone of modern society - and your leadership will help ensure they remain secure, reliable and robust even if global navigation satellite systems fail. 

     

    Key Responsibilities:

    • Manage the monitoring of services, networks and applications, ensuring timely response to operational events, alerts and incidents.

    • Coordinate incident management activities, driving investigations, escalations and service restoration.

    • Lead Change Enablement activities, ensuring requests are appropriately assessed, reviewed and implemented.

    • Manage service requests, user access controls and operational administration activities.

    • Maintain and improve asset, configuration and service management processes and records.

    • Coordinate backup, software maintenance and configuration activities to support service availability and resilience.

    • Drive compliance with operational, security and cyber requirements across service operations activities.

    • Contribute to the development, implementation and continuous improvement of ITSM and ITIL-aligned operational processes.
