ServiceNow Platform Manager

ServiceNow Platform Manager

A growing technology business is looking for an experienced ServiceNow Platform Manager to take ownership of a developing platform with plenty of scope to evolve. You’ll shape the roadmap, strengthen governance and make sure ServiceNow delivers real value across the wider organisation.

Role Overview:

• Location: Denver, Colorado. Hybrid/3-4 days per week in Broomfield, Colorado.


• Contract Type: Corp to Corp (C2C)


• Contract Length: 6 month initial contract with potential to become permanent.


• Candidate Essentials: Must have an active LLC or Corporation to work on a C2C contract


• Package: $105–$120 per hour


• Industry: Technology

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Take overall ownership of the ServiceNow platform, with roughly 70% of your time focused on platform leadership, governance and delivery oversight


• Build and manage the ServiceNow roadmap, aligning investment and priorities with changing business requirements


• Own the backlog and demand process, turning stakeholder requirements into clear priorities and achievable platform improvements


• Manage the relationship with the external Systems Integrator, reviewing and challenging solution designs, estimates, delivery plans and technical approaches


• Ensure the business retains strong internal platform knowledge, documentation and governance rather than becoming overly dependent on external partners


• Oversee releases, testing, upgrades, platform maintenance and change activity across the ServiceNow environment


• Work directly with stakeholders across IT, Security, Infrastructure, Enterprise Applications and wider business functions to improve processes and platform adoption


• Continue developing existing ITSM and CSM capabilities while identifying opportunities to expand ServiceNow across the organisation


• Help improve employee onboarding and other internal workflows through automation and better use of the platform


• Assess future modules and capabilities, with Integrated Risk Management (IRM) among the next areas being considered


• Keep approximately 30% of the role technically focused, stepping into administration or configuration where needed while the SI handles the majority of development work


• Improve reporting, dashboards and KPIs to give leadership greater visibility over platform performance, adoption, demand and delivery


• Maintain strong controls around integrations, access, data quality, technical debt and platform customisation

Main Skills Needed:

• 5+ years of ServiceNow experience across platform management, product ownership, administration, business analysis or consulting


• Experience taking meaningful ownership of a ServiceNow environment, ideally within an enterprise organisation


• Strong ServiceNow governance and roadmap experience, with the confidence to balance strategic platform decisions with day-to-day delivery


• Proven experience managing a ServiceNow SI or implementation partner, including the technical understanding to challenge designs, estimates and proposed solutions


• Strong knowledge of ITSM and CSM, with broader exposure to areas such as CMDB/CSDM, ITOM, ITAM, Service Catalog, workflow automation or Performance Analytics beneficial


• ServiceNow Certified System Administrator (CSA) certification


• ServiceNow Certified Implementation Specialist certifications across ITSM and CSM


• Strong understanding of ITIL principles; ITIL Foundation certification would be beneficial


• Ability to gather business requirements, lead stakeholder conversations and translate competing priorities into a structured platform backlog


• Comfortable being hands-on when required rather than operating solely at management level


• IRM experience would be particularly useful as the platform moves into its next phase of development


• Experience working in enterprise environments preferred, although strong consulting or high-growth/scale-up experience will also be considered

What’s in It for You:

• 40-hour-per-week contract with the opportunity to make an immediate impact.


• Ownership of a ServiceNow platform that is still relatively early in its maturity, giving you genuine influence over how it develops


• A broad remit spanning platform strategy, governance, vendor management, stakeholder engagement and technical oversight


• The chance to take ServiceNow beyond its current core use cases and support wider adoption across the business


• Exposure to an evolving roadmap covering areas such as IRM, HR Service Delivery, Security Operations, AI enablement and further workflow automation


• Potential for contract extension or conversion into a permanent position as the platform roadmap develops
