People on the move deserve a bank that moves with them. Since 2022, Aspora has been building a borderless financial operating system that makes money as mobile and transparent as its users.
Backed by influential venture capitalists like Sequoia Capital, Greylock Partners, Hummingbird Ventures, Y Combinator & Global Founders Capital. We're a team of 75+ across India, the UK, the UAE, EU and the US, working with extreme ownership, radical candour, and an obsession with customer impact.
We celebrate builders who question assumptions, ship fast, and turn regulatory complexity into elegant solutions. If you’re driven to redefine what global banking can be, we’d love to build the future with you.
About the Role
Aspora is building a global financial platform used at moments that matter — onboarding, identity verification, money movement, failed transactions, and time-sensitive escalations across geographies and regulatory regimes. At the center of customer trust sits Customer Experience.
As Head of CX & Support, you will own the end-to-end customer experience engine at Aspora — from frontline support to quality, training, tooling, and customer advocacy. This is not a “support delivery” role. It is a systems-building, judgement-heavy leadership role responsible for ensuring Aspora can scale customers, products, and volumes without scaling friction, confusion, or customer anxiety.
You will lead a ~30-member CX organisation today and scale it into a multi-tier, multi-channel, 24×7 global operation, capable of performing reliably during high-stress events: outages, compliance holds, failed transfers, and regulatory incidents.
You’ll work closely with Product, Engineering, Risk, Compliance, and Operations to ensure customer experience is designed into Aspora’s systems — not patched after things break.
This role reports to senior leadership and works closely with Product, Engineering, Compliance, Risk, and Ops.
Location: Bangalore
Type: In-office | 5 days a week
What You’ll Own :
CX Strategy & Org Design

Lead the evolution from reactive ticket handling → proactive, insight-driven customer experience
Workflows, SOPs & Training Systems
Build and maintain best-in-class SOPs for core customer journeys, escalations, and regulatory edge cases
Design scalable training systems: new-hire onboarding, product & policy updates, scenario-based simulations

Quality, Metrics & Operational Rigor
Define and own CX success metrics across scale (quality, resolution, customer effort, trust signals)
Build and refine QA frameworks across channels and issue types
Translate CX data into clear insights that influence product, policy, and operational decisions at leadership level
Customer Advocacy & Cross-Functional Leadership
Act as the voice of the customer internally — surfacing recurring pain points with clarity, urgency, and data
Run structured rituals: VOC reviews, RCA sessions, post-incident retrospectives
Partner deeply with Product, Engineering, Risk, and Compliance to fix systemic issues and improve product flows, controls, and trust
Team Building & Culture
Hire, coach, and develop high-performing CX leaders and ICs
Build a culture grounded in:
