Description

Our client is hiring a senior customer-facing support professional to lead and elevate the client experience function for hairdresser clients across multiple channels.. This is not just a ticket-handling role. The ideal candidate will combine strong hands-on customer support experience with the ability to guide junior team members, improve support processes, and help structure a scalable client experience function.

  • Hands-on experience with Zendesk or similar ticketing systems.
  • Experience working across multiple channels, WhatsApp, SMS, Email, Social media DMs, Phone or virtual support calls.
  • Strong ability to stay calm and structured in complaint-heavy environments.
  • Experience improving or building support processes, workflows, or SOPs.
  • Comfortable balancing hands-on support + operational thinking.
  • Reliable, proactive, and takes ownership of outcomes (not just tasks).

What Success Looks Like

  • Customers receive faster, more consistent responses across all channels.
  • Junior support staff are effectively guided and improved over time.
  • Support processes become clearer, more structured, and scalable.
  • Fewer escalations due to improved first-line resolution.
