  • Onboard new products end‑to‑end, working closely with Product Managers, Service Delivery Managers and operational users.

  • Work as part of a multi‑disciplinary team supporting Vortex and its users as the platform matures.

  • Hands‑on experience with incident, problem and change management (ideally ServiceNow).
  • \n
  • Understanding of service availability and capacity, KPIs and SLAs.
  • \n
  • Ability to carry out routine maintenance, admin tasks and technical support activities.
  • \n
  • Comfortable executing test scripts and understanding the role of testing within the lifecycle.
  • \n
  • Strong user focus - engaging with stakeholders, gathering user needs and using data to drive improvements.
  • \n
  • Proactive ownership and initiative - seeing issues through until they are resolved or appropriately transitioned.
  • \n
\n

\n

Why this might interest you

\n
    \n
  • Work on a brand‑new strategic platform that will replace legacy forecasting solutions across the organisation.
  • \n
  • Blend of technical configuration, service operations and stakeholder interaction.
  • \n
  • Stable 12‑month engagement with a single, well‑defined product team.
  • \n
  • Flexible hybrid setup with minimal on‑site requirement in Exeter.
  • \n
  • Inclusive employer that participates in guaranteed interview schemes (Disability Confident and Armed Forces Covenant).
