  • Picking up some inflight customer service workstreams that may have been delivered but now needs to be enhanced to support the transformation across multiple markets.
  • You will need to manage this in consideration of existing BAU activities to ensure they are enhanced rather than negatively impacted.

  • Create transparency of program goals and status with clear stakeholder buy-In & alignment across Revenue, Finance, Content, Strategy, Engineering and Delivery.
  • Demonstrate the ability to share clear messages and make complex programmes easy to understand and influence internal and external stakeholders.

  • You will also have had exposure to systems such as Salesforce, Zendesk, and Chatbot tooling, and have a strong appreciation of customer service.
  • Proven experience converting product roadmaps into work packages.
