Position Overview
The Senior Manager, IT Service Desk owns end-to-end delivery of IT support services across the organization from ticket intake through resolution, and is accountable for the people, processes, and partner relationships that keep employees and lab operations productive. This role blends hands-on service management with strategic planning: designing coverage models, managing SLAs, overseeing an MSP relationship, and driving self-service adoption, while also owning device lifecycle management and specialized support for lab and scientific systems.
This is a working manager role. You'll set strategy and represent the service desk to stakeholders, while staying close enough to daily operations to catch quality issues, unblock your team, and support escalations when needed.

Design, document, and continuously improve service desk processes ensuring consistent execution by internal staff and MSP resources.
Define service metrics and KPIs (e.g., SLA attainment, MTTR, MTTF, first-contact resolution, backlog aging, CSAT) and own the dashboards and leadership summaries used to communicate performance.
Lead the design and delivery of self-service capabilities, including knowledge base content standards, catalog offerings, and report on ticket deflection and knowledge usage.
Define requirements for ServiceNow/ITSM workflow, automation, and reporting enhancements that improve service desk delivery and measurement.
Support MSP partnership success through defining scope and service levels, own runbooks and training, conduct ticket quality audits, and lead monthly/quarterly performance and SLA reviews with remediation plans.
Onboarding, Offboarding, and Employee Lifecycle Support
Design and manage the onboarding process for account and hardware provisioning, coordinating team and MSP delivery against defined lead times, and partner with HR on new employee onboarding plans.
Own the offboarding process (device retrieval, access disablement, data preservation/handoff per HR and Legal requirements, and license reclamation) and report on completion timeliness and compliance.
Manage the process for transfers, role changes, and contractor/vendor accounts, including periodic reconciliation against HR records and reporting of exceptions.
Physical Device Lifecycle Management (partnering with Endpoint Engineering on management tooling)
Design and manage the full hardware lifecycle process (acquire, receive, inventory, tag, provision, repair, refresh, retire, dispose), with execution delivered by the team and MSP.
Govern asset record accuracy in ServiceNow; define the reconciliation cadence against physical inventory and CMDB data and report on accuracy and variances.
Maintain the standard hardware catalog and refresh cycle; set and monitor spare and hot-swap stock levels per site.
Own secure disposal and data sanitization processes, including certificates of destruction, e-waste vendor management, and audit-ready documentation.
Manage shipping and logistics processes for remote and field personnel, including return kits, and track fulfillment and return rates.
Lab and Scientific Systems Support
Manage lab system device lifecycle processes (implement, maintain, retire) in partnership with Endpoint Engineering.
Define priority and response targets for lab incidents and requests, oversee team and MSP delivery against them, and report on lab support performance.
Coordinate with instrument vendors and field service engineers on scheduled maintenance, software upgrades, and validation constraints; maintain the associated schedules and service records.
Establish and monitor support practices for data integrity on instrument-attached workstations, including controlled access, backup verification, and time synchronization.
Partner with R&D on support planning and service readiness for new instruments during lab build-out and capital purchases.
Stakeholder Representation and Service Improvement
Own the service improvement roadmap, using metrics, trend analysis, and customer feedback to prioritize ServiceNow workflow, automation, and process improvements.
