This role sits at the center of customer support impacting initiatives — partnering across Support, Product, Risk, Engineering, and Enablement to ensure launches, tooling updates, workflow changes, and operational initiatives are introduced thoughtfully and executed smoothly.
You'll drive and continuously improve the operational rhythms that keep teams coordinated, from readiness planning and dependency management to launch communications, enablement coordination, and post-launch analysis. Some initiatives will require deep cross-functional orchestration across many stakeholders; others will rely on strong operational judgment, fast execution, and consistent follow-through.
The right person enjoys improving operational systems, bringing clarity to complex initiatives, and helping teams execute change with confidence.
