  Department: IT Operations

  Work Type: Full Time (Total FTE between 0.9 and 1.0)

  Shift: Shift 1

  Work Schedule: 8 Hr (8:00:00 AM - 5:00:00 PM) REMOTE POSITION

  Summary:

  The Major Incident Manager (MIM) designs major incident management processes and engages in the day-to-day operational delivery of those processes. The MIM implements consistent and effective ITSM Major Incident processes according to industry standards and best practices. In conjunction with the Incident/problem Process owner, process design includes understanding both the needs and goals of RUSH, implementing solutions, and preparing all stakeholders to engage in those processes. Process design also includes continual assessment and improvement. The MIM tracks and facilitates the lifecycle of each major (critical) incident that impacts technology services at RUSH. This includes responding to each proposed major incident and completing the full process to closure. The Major Incident Manager is the single point of contact and coordination for all major incidents. Coordination includes engaging support resources, providing updates to stakeholders, and gathering information for effective communications. Communication and coordination efforts include leadership, locations across RUSH, and a variety of technical groups.

  Responsibilities:

  • Design and implement major incident processes that meet the needs of the organization.

  • Maintain a standard process in order to streamline operations, create efficiencies, and decrease the impact of major incidents.

  • Champion organizational change (including communications, training, and support) for the overall success of the major incident process, including successful adoption within the culture.

  • Respond with agility to rapidly changing organizational needs and coordinate improvement activities.

  • Inform decisions regarding the tools and technology used in the process, including ServiceNow and any peripheral tools.

  • Document major incidents and track each through its lifecycle.

  • Engage resources to support timely resolution.

  • Create and maintain data/reports in ServiceNow to inform decisions, reduce risk, and address compliance.

  • Use data and metrics to assess performance, find opportunities for improvement, and identify training needs.

  • Work closely with Problem Management to ensure root cause is identified and plans are in place to mitigate recurrence.

  • Engage in personal growth and training to maintain knowledge of successful IT service management.

  Since major incidents can occur at any time, the incumbent must be able to respond to major incidents during non-business hours and engage in an on-call rotation.

  This is a remote position with occasional on-site options.
