At OneAdvanced, we’re looking for a senior leader who can turn strategy into real, measurable impact, someone who thrives on bringing clarity, structure, and momentum to a complex Services organisation.
As Director of Service Operations and Performance, you’ll sit at the heart of our Services function, working directly with the Chief Services Officer to ensure our strategy is not only defined, but consistently delivered across multiple service lines. You’ll lead cross-functional execution, align teams around shared goals, and create the operational rhythm that keeps the business performing at its best. This is a high-impact role where you’ll act as a trusted partner to the CSO, taking ownership of day-to-day operational leadership, driving strategic programmes forward, and ensuring the organisation runs as one coordinated system. You’ll also shape how we measure success, delivering clear, insight-led reporting to executive and board stakeholders.
If you’re motivated by building alignment, driving performance, and making a visible impact at scale within a SaaS environment, this is an opportunity to play a pivotal role in how Services evolves.
This is a hybrid role based out of our Birmingham HQ, with the expectation that the successful candidate will attend the office 1-2 times a week when required.
You will lead the end-to-end execution of the Services strategy, ensuring all service functions operate in a coordinated, high-performing way and deliver measurable business outcomes.
Translate strategy into clear, prioritised plans, delivery roadmaps, and measurable outcomes aligned to business goals
Partner with Finance to build and manage annual and multi-year plans, including KPIs, budgets, and headcount
Coordinate delivery across all service functions (Support, CX, Professional Services, etc.), ensuring alignment and consistency
Own cross-functional programme execution, including prioritisation, sequencing, and resource allocation
Act as the primary escalation point for delivery, performance, and resource challenges, resolving blockers with senior leadership
Establish and run the Services operating rhythm, including performance reviews, governance, dashboards, and QBRs
Track performance against KPIs, milestones, and financial targets, proactively adjusting plans to stay on track
Deliver clear, insight-driven reporting to executive and board stakeholders on performance, risks, and progress
Lead and develop a high-performing team, while shaping organisational structure and capability for future growth
Act as a trusted partner to the CSO, driving execution, providing insight, and representing Services across the business
Build strong relationships across Product, Sales, Finance, and Technology to align priorities and drive outcomes
You will bring a strong blend of strategic thinking, operational leadership, and the ability to drive execution across complex, cross-functional environments.
A strategic mindset, with the ability to translate vision into clear, actionable plans and outcomes
Strong planning and prioritisation skills, able to align multiple teams and initiatives across a complex organisation
A track record of delivering against commitments, driving accountability and execution discipline
Confidence managing senior stakeholders, balancing competing priorities with credibility and sound judgement
Solid financial and commercial acumen, with experience managing KPIs, budgets, and performance metrics
Expertise in operational excellence, improving processes, workflows, and ways of working at scale
Excellent communication and influencing skills, comfortable operating at executive and board level
Proven ability to build, lead, and develop high-performing teams and organisational capability
Experience in a SaaS or technology-enabled services environment, ideally within the UK market
Demonstrated success leading cross-functional delivery or transformation programmes at scale
Experience acting as an integrator across multiple service lines, rather than operating within a single silo
