About Oworx Public Cloud

SCC recognise that many organisations across multiple sectors need the power of Public Cloud to realise their full potential. Many businesses either lack the capacity or capability to successfully architect, deploy, and manage cloud infrastructure, or would prefer to focus on their core business rather than invest in training and maintaining the internal talent required to benefit from automation and cloud tooling. To tackle these challenges SCC launched its "born in the cloud" brand Oworx.

Technology changes are hard to predict even when certain evolutions look certain. What's more predictable is our team, a group of passionate individuals who are adaptable to change, with an innate love for the leading edge. The quality that will always prevail is our people.

At Oworx, every day is a fresh challenge. We live and breathe cloud technology, nurturing the industry's leading talent so we can offer the highest level of specialist expertise. Our culture is what binds us; everyone can contribute; everyone's voice matters. At Oworx, enjoying what we do is a serious business.

The Role

The Support and Operations Manager is focused on delivering an outstanding support experience for our customers across Azure, AWS and GCP. You will work in a small progressive "startup" team, challenging yourself and your colleagues to accelerate the launch of new support services, whilst maintaining the high standard of support across our existing services. You will be responsible for the day to day management of the 24/7 support team based out of Romania and will provide insight and guidance to the head of Oworx around the future strategy of the support function. Whilst the role is autonomous you will report directly to the head of Oworx and receive lots of support when you need it.
