Senior Commercial Manager - Roaming - Wholesale Mobile

The UK’s fastest broadband network. The nation’s best-loved mobile brand. And, one of the UK's biggest companies too. We put our customers first, making life simpler, smoother, and more joyful. With big ambitions and a brilliant team, we’re building a more connected future for everyone.

Our ways of working

We’re a flexible-first organisation, because we know people do their best work when they have choice and clarity. To support meaningful collaboration, we ask everyone to spend at least eight days each month connecting in person.

That doesn’t just mean time in the office, it could be team meetings, offsites, volunteering days, cross-functional projects, or away days - anywhere meaningful collaboration happens. What matters is making those moments purposeful, so when we come together, it really counts.

Accessible, inclusive and equitable for all

Virgin Media O2 is an equal opportunities employer, and we're working hard to remove bias and barriers for our people and candidates. So, we build equity and inclusion into everything we do, from the policies we craft to the relationships we shape. We support and encourage you to be your authentic self throughout your application journey with us.

In order to be considered, you must have the following experience;

• Extensive commercial experience in roaming, wholesale telecoms, IoT connectivity or global partner agreements, including IMSI leasing and third‑party roaming brokers.
• Strong understanding of GSMA roaming frameworks, permanent roaming regulations and IoT roaming architectures.
• Proven track record negotiating complex, high‑value international agreements (operators, aggregators, brokers or multi‑IMSI providers).
• Highly analytical with strong financial and commercial modelling skills and deep knowledge of roaming economics.
• Excellent communication and partner engagement skills, able to influence senior internal and external collaborators.
• Strong governance approach with meticulous attention to commercial, contractual and regulatory detail.
• Familiarity with GSMA (IR.21, IR.85, RAEX, SGP.32 etc.)
• Understanding of TAP/BCE flows, wholesale charging, fraud controls and rating/settlement processes

The other stuff we're looking for

We'd also love you to bring;

• An ability to cultivate strong, trust‑based relationships with global operators, brokers and internal teams.
• A proactive approach with the confidence to make informed decisions in fast‑moving, ambiguous environments.

Our goal is to celebrate our people, their lives and everything in-between. We aim to create a culture that empowers everyone to bring the best versions of themselves to work each and every day. We believe the most inclusive and diverse culture makes for a better business and a brighter world.
