We build trusted relationships, learn our customers’ businesses, and deliver value-based outcomes that make ServiceNow the best decision they ever made.

The CEG Strategy, Product, & Operations team (SPO) is the powerhouse that propels CEG forward. We are the strategic engine for the organization, driving org-wide programs to forge critical cross-functional partnerships to empower CEG's most vital initiatives, as well as providing the operational rhythm that powers BAU Operations.

The Role:

Reporting directly to the VP of CEG Global Field Ops, the Sr. Director, AMS Head of CEG Operations will lead the operational engine for the Customer Excellence Group (CEG) across the Americas.
