If you're all about top-notch customer experiences and you've got the supervisory skills to match, then this is your perfect role! 

About the Role:

We are looking for a dynamic Support Services Supervisor to join our team in this brand-new role. Reporting to the Support Services Manager, you will lead our Sales Support and Tech Support teams (six people in total) and ensure the wider team, including Customer Services and Inbound Sales, works cohesively to consistently deliver outstanding service across all customer support functions. You will be dealing with predominantly Business to Business (B2B) customers, but will also support retail customers (B2C) too.

As a supervisor, you'll get to really enjoy the people management aspect of the role, acting as a coach, mentor, and motivator to guide your team towards success. You'll keep operations running smoothly by coordinating tasks, reviewing quotes, approving refunds, and providing support with complaints. Working closely with the Support Services Manager, you'll help harmonise our cross-trained support functions and contribute to achieving our strategic goals.  You'll also help to oversee the whole department, when needed, in the absence of the Support Services Manager.

If you're someone who thrives on challenges and is eager to take on more responsibility, this role is doubly perfect for you! You'll have the exciting opportunity to step up this year and cover a 9-month maternity leave as Acting Support Services Manager, where you'll broaden your management skills by overseeing the full support services areas, which include Customer Services, Inbound Sales, Sales and tech Support and service delivery.   More about this can be discussed at interview.

 What We Need form you:

We need a supervisor who can hit the ground running, with proven experience in managing/supervising customer support teams, resolving escalations, and training cross-functional teams. Ideally, you will have experience dealing with B2C and B2B customers and supervising teams who predominantly work with B2B customers. You'll be a natural collaborator and thrive on supporting your manager to drive improvements throughout the support services function.

You should be proficient in Microsoft Office, an effective communicator, and able to manage multiple deadlines under pressure. Strong problem-solving skills and a hands-on management approach are essential. You ideally will possess a broad knowledge of technology, with an understanding of different components and products currently available.  Above all, you should embody our values of passion, authenticity, collaboration, conscientiousness, respect, responsiveness, and honesty.

For the step-up maternity cover, you’ll ideally be an experienced Supervisor who has worked as a 2nd line for a department, possibly covering in the absence of a manager.
