The Lead Platform Administrator provides day-to-day operational leadership for Fullsteam’s Tier 1/2 support functions, covering incidents, problems, service requests, and inquiries managed in ServiceNow. Reporting to the Senior Manager of Enterprise Service Delivery, this working lead independently executes the established service delivery operating model, maintains team standards, and drives service quality and performance. Responsibilities include queue health, quality assurance, cross-functional escalations, CSAT follow-up, and weekly reporting to IT leadership.

The role leads Tier 1/2 operational improvements and partners with the Senior Manager on broader initiatives involving KPIs, operational risk, call center performance, and the end-user support experience. It also owns the day-to-day performance and optimization of ServiceNow AI Agent and Virtual Agent capabilities and handles tickets alongside the team as needed.

This is a non-supervisory role with no direct reports. The Lead provides day-to-day direction, peer coaching, and process-focused QA feedback without formal people-management authority. Formal performance management, attendance, conduct, service strategy, operating model design, and organizational accountability remain with the Senior Manager.

• Deliver weekly IT leadership reports highlighting performance, trends, risks, notable escalations, and improvement actions.

AI-Assisted Service Delivery

• Optimize ServiceNow AI Agent and Virtual Agent capabilities for approved, high-volume, low-complexity Tier 1 requests.
• Maintain appropriate boundaries between AI-handled and human-handled work, adjust automation based on risk, and ensure escalation handoffs preserve ticket context.
• Improve Now Assist or equivalent case summarization and suggested-resolution capabilities using QA findings, resolved-ticket patterns, and knowledge base improvements.

Escalations, CSAT & Stakeholder Management

• Manage escalated incidents and requests through resolution, including triage, stakeholder communication, and cross-functional coordination.
• Own CSAT follow-up by investigating dissatisfied responses, identifying root causes, coordinating corrective actions, and monitoring results.

Continuous Improvement & Risk

• Lead Tier 1/2 improvements across workflows, documentation, knowledge management, self-service, automation, and service consistency; partner with the Senior Manager on broader cross-functional initiatives.
• Identify recurring service patterns and operational risks, including coverage or skill gaps, tooling limitations, and call center performance issues; recommend mitigations and support approved changes through implementation.
