You play a crucial role in proactively identifying areas of improvement and implementing process change, driving high-performing teams. You are comfortable dealing with ambiguity and quickly adapt to changes. You seek collaboration with other teams to enhance the overall customer experience.

Team management:

you are passionate about guiding and supporting your team members, helping them navigate complex customer situations, improve their skills, and achieve their goals.

You are ready for regular performance reviews with team members.

While your help in identifying areas for improvement is key, you are asked to celebrate excellence, recognise your team's achievements, and set goals for individual growth within the team.

Cross-functional collaboration: collaboration with other departments, such as Sales, Marketing, Product development, and Support, is essential. This ensures alignment on customer needs, feedback sharing, and coordinated efforts to drive customer success. You establish trustworthy channels of communication across the board.
