About the role
The Customer Service Desk Manager is responsible for leading the Service Desk function that schedules and supports service technicians across electronic security projects and maintenance activities.

- Manage job allocation, including preventative maintenance, urgent breakdowns, and project support tasks.
- Coordinate with customers, subcontractors, and suppliers to confirm appointment times, access requirements, and service expectations.
Customer Experience
- Ensure all customer requests are logged, acknowledged, and responded to in line with agreed SLAs.
- Act as the primary escalation point for customers with urgent or unresolved service issues.
- Maintain strong communication with clients, providing updates on job status, technician ETAs, and completion reports.
Team Leadership
- Lead and mentor the service desk/scheduling team, providing coaching, support, and development opportunities.
- Manage workload distribution across the team to ensure consistent coverage during business hours.
- Foster a culture of accountability, responsiveness, and continuous improvement.
Performance & Reporting
- Track and report on key metrics such as first-time fix rate, technician utilisation, SLA compliance, and customer satisfaction.
- Analyse service desk data to identify recurring faults, scheduling bottlenecks, and improvement opportunities.
- Work with the Operations Manager and National Service Manager to balance reactive and preventative maintenance workload.
What we’re looking for
- Experience in service desk, scheduling, or operations management (electronic security or related industries preferred).
- Demonstrated ability to lead a small-to-medium team in a high-volume scheduling environment.
- Familiarity with service management software.
- Understanding of electronic security systems (CCTV, access control, alarms, intercoms) desirable but not essential.
