We’re looking for an inclusive, strategic leader to guide our global Customer Support team. In this role, you’ll empower engineers, technicians, and support specialists who deliver exceptional service to our customers — diagnosing, troubleshooting, and resolving complex challenges across electro-mechanical equipment, computer systems, software, and network environments.

  • Strengthen customer relationships by resolving escalations with empathy and efficiency, improving our reputation for being easy to do business with.

  • Coach and develop high-performing team members — focusing on skill development, inclusion, and long-term career growth.

  • Contribute to strategic planning — including workforce and capacity planning, operational budgeting, and KPI management.

  • Champion process improvement to simplify workflows, reduce redundancy, and increase clarity and accountability.

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with internal teams to identify opportunities for customers to transition to managed services solutions.

  • Support change management initiatives, including the implementation of new case management systems and technology migrations, ensuring smooth transitions for both employees and customers.

Required Skills & Experience:
  • 10+ years of experience leading customer support or service delivery teams for enterprise clients.

  • 5+ years managing services in private, public, or hybrid cloud environments — experience with K8s (Kubernetes) environments is a plus.

  • Proven track record implementing or migrating large-scale case management systems (experience with ServiceNow is highly valued).

  • Strong operational mindset — able to connect metrics and KPIs to real-world improvements and measurable outcomes.

  • Adept at leading teams through change, fostering collaboration, and uniting diverse groups around common goals.

  • Strategic thinker with strong execution skills — you turn vision into action.

  • Passionate about using technology, automation, and AI to enhance service quality and scale operations.

  • Experienced in coaching, mentoring, and building inclusive global teams that deliver outstanding results.

Education Requirements:
  • Bachelor's degree in related field or equivalent experience.
