Head of Customer Service | Fast-Growing Ecommerce Brand
UK Remote First with some travel
Salary TBD + bonus and benefits

This is a confidential search, so I’m keeping the information top line.
I’m working with a fast-growing Ecommerce brand looking for an experienced Head of Customer Service. There is already a team in place, but they now need someone senior to take ownership of the function, look at what could work better and shape the next stage.
Why it’s interesting:

  • Take ownership of the customer service function
  • Make improvements rather than simply maintain what is already there
  • Get involved across the team, processes, reporting and systems
  • Work closely with senior leadership and have input into wider decisions
  • Make sure customer feedback is used to improve the wider customer journey

The role:

  • Lead and develop the customer service team
  • Set the direction and priorities for the function
  • Look at what is working, what isn’t and what needs to change
  • Improve reporting, processes, systems and ways of working
  • Set clear KPIs and make sure performance stays on track
  • Work closely with other teams to solve problems and improve the customer experience

What they’re looking for:

  • Senior customer service leadership experience, ideally from a larger retail business
  • Ecommerce experience is essential
  • Strong people leadership experience
  • Someone who can think strategically but is still happy getting involved
  • Experience improving customer service functions, not just running BAU
  • Confident working with senior stakeholders and putting ideas forward
  • Someone who can stay calm, make decisions and keep things moving
