As our new Head of Support Excellence & Experience, you take full ownership of our entire support processes and shape how customers experience our support. In this role, you will take full responsibility for our Support Excellence & Experience function and lead a team of five managers.
Together, you ensure that technical and commercial customer support work seamlessly and are experienced by our customersas one cohesive unit. You act as the key interface between support areas, create clear structures, and consistently align support operations with customer satisfaction and performance KPIs.
Alongside your team, you are responsible for running a stable and scalable support operation - from forward-looking shift and capacity planning to ongoing training and coaching of our agents. At the same time, you continuously optimize processes and drive automation initiatives to improve efficiency and service quality.
A strong focus of this role is the further development of the entire support journey. You enhance our support tools and chatbot, oversee rating management and ensure high-quality process documentation as well as a well-structured external knowledgebase and self-service solutions.
In addition, you contribute to and lead company-wide projects related to support initiatives. If you combine strategic thinking with hands-on execution, you will turn support into a true competitive advantage for the entire company.
