  • Establish clear standards for service quality, coverage models, escalation paths, and incident response.
  • Coach and mentor managers and senior support engineers, driving career development, performance management, and succession planning.
  • Partner closely with cross-functional IT teams such as Service Engineering, UCC, Infrastructure, Security, and Enterprise Systems to resolve complex issues and improve end-to-end service delivery.
  • Use data and insights to identify recurring issues, reduce operational friction, and continuously improve the employee support experience.
  • Define, track, and act on key metrics such as CSAT, response times, resolution quality, and support trends.
  • Support Box's shift-left strategy by partnering on self-service, knowledge management, and AI-assisted support initiatives.
  • Ensure executive and VIP support services deliver a consistent, white-glove experience with appropriate discretion and redundancy.
  • Improve operational resilience by reducing single points of failure, strengthening documentation, and increasing knowledge sharing across the team.

Requirements

  • Experienced people leader with a track record of hiring, coaching, and managing high-performing IT support or end user services teams.
  • Strong operational leader who can balance day-to-day execution with longer-term service improvement and strategy.
  • Deep understanding of enterprise IT support models, including executive support and global service delivery.
  • Proven ability to partner cross-functionally and influence without authority in complex organizations.
  • Data-driven and customer-focused, using metrics and feedback to guide decisions and improve outcomes.
  • Comfortable operating in high-visibility environments where trust, responsiveness, and communication are critical.
  • Excellent communicator who can clearly articulate priorities, expectations, and changes to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Preferred skills:
