As one of the world’s most iconic and respected nonprofits, ALSAC is looking for individuals who want to make an impact in helping St. Jude cure childhood cancer. The organization is committed to developing and celebrating its employees. This role is for a Product Owner who views IT support as a product, not just a collection of tickets, tools, or queues. The Product Owner II will own the end-to-end support experience, from an employee's initial need for help to the full resolution of their issue and restoration of productivity. The primary service area for this role is End User Compute (EUC), encompassing technology employees use daily, such as computers, phones, monitors, peripherals, and core productivity tools. This position is central to ALSAC's “single front door” support model and offers a significant opportunity to shape the company's IT experience, from onboarding through daily support. The Product Owner II will be responsible for the entire support experience across Client Services and the Service Desk, ensuring employees consistently receive timely, reliable, and high-quality support. Key responsibilities include defining the product vision, setting priorities based on data, guiding delivery, and collaborating with IT leaders and resolver teams to transform pain points into meaningful improvements.
