  • 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.
  • Documentation and reporting: you are allowed to be creative While building content with your team and your manager, you also ensure the changes are well documented, instilling quality and attention to detail in all you do.
