Sr Manager, Knowledge Management

CVS Health CVS Health · Healthcare · Work at Home, PA +49 · Innovation and Technology

Seeking a Knowledge Management Leader to drive KM strategy and roadmap across IT domains, championing a knowledge-first culture, increasing self-service, and reducing MTTR. The role involves embedding knowledge capture into engineering workflows, consolidating knowledge bases, and integrating KM with CMDB processes, with a focus on using data and generative AI for enhanced discovery.

What you'd actually do

  1. Drive our KM strategy and roadmap across all IT domains.
  2. Champion a collaborative, "knowledge-first" culture across IT Services, breaking down information silos between ITSM, SRE, CloudOps, Network, and DBA teams.
  3. Implement a "shift-left" strategy to increase self-service capabilities and reduce Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR) across the organization.
  4. Embed knowledge capture into daily engineering workflows, consolidating fragmented knowledge bases into a central ITSM platform (e.g., ServiceNow).
  5. Chair a cross-functional Knowledge Governance Board.
  6. Integrate Knowledge Management with CMDB processes to ensure technical documentation is accurately mapped to Configuration Items (CIs), using both data-driven metrics and innovative technologies like generative AI to enhance discovery.
