About the Role

This role leads Employee Technology & Digital Workplace, directing key functions like the Service Desk, ServiceNow ITSM, employee lifecycle technology, digital workplace engineering, and M365/collaboration platforms. The goal is to transform IT service delivery into a modern, consumer-grade digital experience focused on employee sentiment and self-service adoption, rather than just ticket resolution.

Responsibilities

  • Define and own the vision, roadmap, and operating model for Employee Technology & Digital Workplace.
  • Translate employee and business feedback into a prioritized modernization roadmap.
  • Champion a "digital-first, self-service-first" philosophy.
  • Partner with IT Strategy & Transformation to align modernization initiatives.
  • Own end-to-end Service Desk operations, including major incident management.
  • Drive continuous modernization of the ServiceNow platform.
  • Establish and monitor experience-led metrics as primary measures of success.
  • Ensure ticketing, request, and knowledge processes are simple and consistent.
  • Own GRC, vendor risk management, and policy exception workflows on the ServiceNow platform.
  • Own portal and content management for the ServiceNow platform.
  • Own the technology experience for onboarding, transfers, and offboarding.
  • Modernize onboarding/offboarding into an automated, orchestrated workflow.
  • Partner with HR, Security, and Facilities to design a seamless employee lifecycle journey.
  • Continuously reduce time-to-productivity for new hires and time-to-deprovision for departures.
  • Own engineering and lifecycle management for employee-facing technology.
  • Drive modernization of the digital workplace.
  • Ensure collaboration and meeting technologies provide a consistently excellent experience.
  • Partner with Enterprise Architecture and Security to ensure digital workplace standards remain secure and scalable.
  • Own service delivery for the M365 platform, including governance and adoption.
  • Own voice and unified communications service delivery.
  • Drive continuous improvement of collaboration tooling.
  • Partner with Enterprise Architecture on platform roadmap decisions and with Security on data governance.
  • Own field and deskside support across all Regeneron sites.
  • Right-size the deskside support model as digital self-service and remote resolution capabilities mature.
  • Ensure support models scale appropriately across site types.
  • Own end-to-end lifecycle management of end-user assets.
  • Maintain accurate asset inventory and compliance reporting.
  • Establish a consistent employee experience measurement framework.
  • Run a continuous improvement cadence to identify and prioritize fixes.
  • Report employee technology experience trends and improvement outcomes to executive stakeholders.
  • Own vendor relationships and contracts for service desk, ITSM, endpoint, and digital workplace tooling.
  • Establish a vendor governance cadence.
  • Partner with Finance and Procurement to manage the cost-to-serve for employee technology.
  • Evaluate emerging digital workplace and AI-enabled support technologies.
  • Determine the organizational structure and operational direction for the function.
  • Build, lead, and develop a high-performing, globally distributed organization.
  • Mentor and coach people leaders across the organization.
  • Model and reinforce a customer-obsessed, continuous-improvement culture.
  • Champion development and team culture within the function.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Information Technology, Business, Engineering, or a related field is required.
  • 17+ years of progressive experience in IT service delivery, end-user computing, digital workplace, or IT operations leadership roles.
  • Deep expertise in ITIL or equivalent service management frameworks.
  • Hands-on experience modernizing an ITSM platform (ServiceNow strongly preferred).
  • Proven experience redesigning employee lifecycle technology (onboarding/offboarding) into an automated, cross-functional workflow spanning IT, HR, and Security.
  • Strong grounding in digital workplace and end-user computing technologies — unified endpoint management, collaboration platforms, mobility, and AV/conferencing.
  • Track record of building and using experience metrics (CSAT, NPS, deflection rate, first-contact resolution) to drive continuous improvement, not just SLA compliance.
  • Experience leveraging automation, self-service, and AI/virtual agent technologies to reduce support volume and improve employee experience.
  • Proven ability to build, scale, and lead large, globally distributed service organizations, including hiring, developing, and retaining talent across a follow-the-sun model.
  • Experience operating in a matrixed, governance-driven environment — partnering with peers in Enterprise Architecture and IT Strategy & Transformation without direct authority over their teams.
  • Strong vendor and contract management experience, including negotiating and managing platform and outsourced support relationships.
  • Sound business and financial acumen, with experience managing cost-to-serve and building business cases for employee technology investment.
  • Proven ability to bring strength and clarity to a business during periods of growth or major change.
  • Executive presence and the ability to communicate operational performance and improvement priorities clearly to senior business and technology leaders.
  • Strong collaboration skills across global, cross-functional, and cross-cultural stakeholder groups.
  • A relentless passion for improvement — constantly enhancing the end-user experience and continuously leveraging innovation.
