is re-imagining the trillion-dollar U.S. B2B card payments infrastructure, with a focus on the countrys 500,000 commercial fleets, 10 million commercial vehicles, and 4 million commercial drivers. The incumbent technologies that cater to these customers are decades old, and drivers and fleets increasingly demand modern digital experiences and affordable and transparent financial services products. Coast's mission is to deliver them at a transformational scale, beginning with the Coast Fleet and Fuel Card built on a cutting-edge spend management platform.

In this role, you are responsible for building out a key value proposition and core strength of our company - outstanding and delightful customer service - which requires a vision and strategy that you will flesh out, as well as the grit to be hands-on and do it all on your own in Coast's earliest days.

* Provide an excellent customer service experience

* Be the voice of the customer to provide feedback to Product and Sales

* Manage office matters, including selection of call center geographies and office spaces as well as corporate real estate in NYC

* Particularly in the early days, pick up the phone and solve customers' problems yourself

**Requirements**

* 5-10+ years management experience in call center/customer service

* A reputation for being results-oriented and dependable, and of thriving while operating at a startup pace, and would enjoy the challenge of a rapidly evolving organization

* Solid understanding of contact center technology

* Experience designing multi-channel service models

* Excellent presentation, interpersonal, negotiation, written and oral communication skills

* Strong ability to influence and build relationships across various cross-functional stakeholders

* Experience with financial products

* Comfort with some amount of domestic travel

* Ability and eagerness to be self-starting and identify and solve problems with little infrastructure, support, or guidance

* Ideally, experience with small- to medium-sized business customers

Critically, you must be practical and business-minded, smart and creative, and excited about the rewards and volatility of an early-stage venture-backed startup.
