How you’ll make an impact

This role is the key driver for operational excellence for the Customer Success (CS) function. As a key member of the CX Project & Readiness team, you will report to the Director of Global CX Projects & Readiness as part of the Customer Growth & Experience Team.

You will be responsible for driving the strategic operations of the CS strategy, acting as the critical connection point between the CS function and the wider Projects team.

You will focus on continuous improvement, operational readiness, and performance monitoring for CS. A key part of your role will be to partner with CS leadership to drive and embed change, ensuring the team is equipped and enabled to adopt new processes, tools, and methodologies, including the practical application of AI-driven solutions to boost productivity and effectiveness.

What you’ll do

• Drive CS Operational Strategy : Act as the primary operational partner for the Head of Customer Success, helping to drive the strategic operations and day-to-day operational rhythm of the CS function. Focus on workflow management, performance against key metrics, and identifying E2E friction points.

• Monitor & Drive Performance : Establish, track, and report on key operational metrics and CS‑related KPIs. Provide actionable insights and data‑driven recommendations to leadership to drive a strong results and delivery focus.
• Enable Change Adoption : Partner with CS leaders to implement and embed functional changes. Develop and execute operational readiness plans—including documentation, system configuration, and communication—to ensure high adoption and seamless transitions from projects to BAU.
• Champion AI & Technology : Actively research, pilot, and deploy AI tools and other technologies to optimize CS operations, improve team productivity, and enhance the customer experience.
• Manage Operational Readiness : Own the operational readiness framework for the CS team, ensuring all processes, documentation, and systems are robust, scalable, and support BAU excellence.
• Stakeholder & Comms : Act as the primary operational liaison between the CS function and the central CX team, managing communications and reporting on operational performance, risks, and improvement initiatives.
