About Aspen Solutions
Founded in 1998, Aspen Solutions is one of Scotland's largest privately owned IT Managed Service Providers. With a strong reputation built over 25+ years of delivering scalable managed solutions, we are now entering our most ambitious phase of growth.
Having recently secured contracts across the UK, Holland, and Luxembourg, we are expanding our reach as a pan-European service provider. Our 3-year plan will see us grow to 110+ people across multiple UK and European offices, and this role is central to making that happen.
Everything we do is guided by a simple philosophy
: Elevate
our business,
Succeed
together, and take
Pride
in our achievements. We have strong foundations, a proven track record, and a clear vision for where we're going. Now we need the right people to help us get there.
As an independent, owner-managed business, your voice will matter. You won't be a number in a corporate MSP. You'll be a leader shaping how we deliver service as we scale.
About the Role
We are seeking a strong, experienced Service Delivery Lead to take ownership of our reactive service delivery and safeguard the customer journey across our teams in the UK, India, South Africa, and Europe.
You will not be expected to personally resolve every technical issue. Instead, you will take full accountability for ensuring that every incident is professionally owned, clearly communicated, and effectively resolved through strong coordination across teams.
This role is the
customer's champion inside Aspen
and a key voice in shaping "The Aspen Way," our evolving approach to how we deliver service excellence consistently as we grow.
An IT background isn't essential. We are looking for a candidate with a genuine passion for customer service and people.
What We Are Looking For in a Candidate
* Someone who takes real
pride
in the level of customer service they deliver, who does the job well, goes the extra mile, and does the right thing even when no one is watching.
* Someone who is
passionate about people
, building genuine rapport with clients, caring about their business, and investing in the growth of our engineering team through coaching and knowledge-sharing.
* Someone who brings a
no-drama, solutions-focused attitude
, willing to try new approaches, stay until the job is done, and keep on top of the detail.
* Someone who is a natural
problem solver
, curious, hungry for improvement, and always looking for a better way to do things.
Key Responsibilities

Why Join Aspen?
* Be part of something growing.
We're scaling from a strong Scottish base to a pan-European MSP, and this role is pivotal to that journey.
* Your voice matters.
As an owner-managed business, we're small enough for you to shape how we operate, but ambitious enough to give you a real platform.
* We back our service.
We offer new MSP clients a 3-month money-back guarantee. That's the level of confidence we have in our delivery, and this role is at the heart of it.
* Invest in your development.
Professional development support, clear progression, and the opportunity to build your leadership career as we grow.
* A culture that means it.
Collaborative, accountable, no drama. We care about our people and we care about doing good work.
