 Job Title: IT Operations Lead

Location: Ikeja, Lagos

Employment Type: Full-time (Remote) Role Overview

Splashers Technologies Limited delivers managed IT services and cybersecurity solutions across a portfolio of technology businesses. IT Operations is the delivery engine of this function, not a support layer. When service quality slips, clients feel it and contracts come under review. The IT Operations Lead owns that outcome. This means environments that stay up, access that is controlled and auditable, service agreements that are honoured, vendors that perform, and a team that keeps getting better at the work. This is a fully remote role suited to someone who runs an operation without being watched, escalates early, and puts everything in writing.

Responsibilities 

Own service delivery against contracted SLAs across all client accounts, response targets, resolution timelines, business-hour calculations, and holiday exclusions Lead the annual SLA renewal cycle,reviewing service line items, restructuring scope where work has changed, and ensuring accurate costing Produce monthly and quarterly service reports with analysis that goes beyond ticket counts to resolution quality, recurring issues, and value delivered Chair or contribute to service review conversations with client stakeholders

Access, Security & Controls:

Own identity and access management, provisioning, access reviews, privileged access control, and clean offboarding Maintain and test controls the business is measured on, including MFA and SSO enforcement, credential hygiene, and security awareness delivery Handle access escalations and privileged-account transitions via a documented matrix, not informal handover Work alongside the InfoSec function on assessments, findings, and remediation tracking without duplicating their mandate

Manage vendor and supplier relationships, contract terms, renewals, performance against agreement, and escalation paths Track spend against budget and flag variance early Support billing accuracy and collections on the service side, with a clear record trail

Exposure to cybersecurity service delivery, including vulnerability assessment and penetration testing engagements ITIL certification or cloud and security certifications relevant to the stack Experience supporting fintech, aviation, edtech, or other regulated or uptime-sensitive sectors Experience with low-code business application platforms Prior success in a fully remote operations role

Demonstrated experience operating at a mid-level management capacity: with the ability to coordinate teams, manage upward, and drive accountability across functions Strong oversight capability: able to maintain visibility across multiple workstreams simultaneously without being hands-on in every detail Confident and effective communicator with a proven ability to present to internal and external stakeholders clearly and with credibility Client relationship management experience: able to build, maintain, and strengthen professional relationships with key accounts and external partners Dynamic, forward-thinking, and adaptable: brings energy, initiative, and a growth mindset to a fast-paced operational environment.
