Job Overview :

The IT Helpdesk Project Manager will oversee and manage the planning, execution, and delivery of IT helpdesk projects, ensuring that IT support services meet organizational needs and goals. This position requires a combination of strong project management skills and technical knowledge, with a focus on optimizing the helpdesk operations, improving customer satisfaction, and aligning helpdesk initiatives with broader IT and business objectives.

Key Responsibilities :

Project Planning & Execution :

  • Lead the end-to-end management of IT helpdesk projects, from initiation through to delivery, ensuring they are completed on time, within scope, and within budget.
  • Develop detailed project plans, timelines, and resources required to support the implementation of new helpdesk systems, software, and service improvements.
  • Coordinate with internal teams (IT, HR, Finance, etc.) and external vendors to ensure alignment on project deliverables.

Team Leadership & Coordination :

  • Manage and support the IT helpdesk team, ensuring that they have the resources, training, and guidance to perform effectively.
  • Provide regular updates to leadership on project status, risks, and milestones.
  • Foster a collaborative environment by working closely with IT support staff, software developers, and other business units.
  • Process Improvement :

  • Evaluate and recommend improvements to helpdesk workflows and operational procedures to improve efficiency and service quality.
  • Implement new technologies or processes to streamline issue resolution, enhance user experience, and optimize resource allocation.
  • Lead initiatives to improve first-call resolution rates, reduce response times, and improve overall helpdesk satisfaction.
  • Customer Satisfaction & Support :

  • Ensure that the helpdesk team delivers high-quality service to end-users by tracking and analyzing customer satisfaction metrics and implementing corrective actions when necessary.
  • Collaborate with customer-facing teams (HR, Marketing, Sales, etc.) to understand evolving needs and ensure the helpdesk can support those requirements.
  • Create and maintain detailed documentation and knowledge bases for common issues, processes, and resolutions.
  • Risk Management & Issue Resolution :

  • Identify potential project risks and take appropriate action to mitigate these risks.
  • Serve as a point of escalation for complex or critical issues, working with the IT team and vendors to resolve them quickly.
  • Maintain clear communication with stakeholders regarding project timelines, roadblocks, and adjustments
  • Reporting & Analysis :

  • Provide regular status reports to senior leadership on project progress, helpdesk performance, and areas of improvement.
  • Analyze helpdesk performance data to identify trends, improve decision-making, and drive continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Budget & Resource Management :

  • Create and manage project budgets, ensuring that all financial resources are used efficiently and in line with project objectives.
  • Optimize resource allocation to ensure the project progresses smoothly without exceeding budget constraints.
  • Skills & Qualifications :
