Release Analyst

About the job you’re considering

The SIAM Release Analyst is accountable for coordinating and governing release activities across a complex multi-supplier environment, ensuring that releases are planned, managed, and deployed in a controlled and efficient manner. The role is outcome-focused, ensuring that release processes, schedules, and supplier activities are aligned to business requirements while minimising risk and disruption to live services. The Release Analyst will coordinate cross-supplier release planning, provide oversight of release execution, and ensure suppliers meet their release management obligations and performance commitments. Through effective governance, collaboration, continuous improvement, and data-driven reporting, the role contributes to improved service quality, enhanced end-user experience, increased operational stability, and the delivery of measurable business value.

Your role:

• Coordinate the end-to-end Release Management process across a multi-supplier service environment, ensuring releases are planned, scheduled, and deployed in accordance with agreed processes and governance.
• Work with suppliers, delivery teams, and service management functions to maintain release calendars, identify dependencies, and support the successful delivery of release activities.
• Monitor release readiness, ensuring required approvals, documentation, testing evidence, and deployment plans are completed prior to implementation.
• Identify, assess, and escalate release-related risks, issues, conflicts, and scheduling impacts to minimise disruption to live services.
• Facilitate cross-supplier release planning meetings and governance forums, promoting collaboration and ensuring alignment across service towers and delivery teams.
• Produce release schedules, management information, performance metrics, and reporting to support operational oversight and informed decision-making.
• Support continual improvement initiatives by analysing release performance, capturing lessons learned, and recommending enhancements to release processes, controls, and supplier practices across the SIAM ecosystem.
