About the Job

Requirements

  • Several years of leadership experience in a larger customer-service or customer-operations organization.
  • Sound knowledge of omnichannel management, workforce management, and operational performance management.
  • Experience with artificial intelligence, self-service, and automation in customer service.
  • Confident use of modern service platforms and reporting tools, such as Zendesk and Power BI.
  • Empathetic and clear leadership.
  • Business-fluent German and very good English.

Responsibilities

  • Develop a target vision for which customer inquiries should be handled through self-service, automation, or artificial intelligence and where personal advice is essential.
  • Manage forecasting, capacity planning, channel management, and real-time management to ensure reliable availability and high service quality, including during peak periods.
  • Identify suitable technology use cases, prioritize requirements, and implement solutions such as agent assist, intelligent routing, and automated workflows with Product, Technology, and Data teams.
  • Analyze contact reasons and repeat contacts, and work with E-Commerce, Logistics, Risk & Fraud, and other departments to eliminate the causes of avoidable customer inquiries.
  • Measure performance using customer satisfaction, resolution quality, first contact resolution, service level, repeat contact rate, and cost to serve, rather than handling speed alone.
  • Develop organizational structures, capabilities, and collaboration; actively involve employees and foster a culture in which technology is experienced as support.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience modernizing established structures and implementing technological change, ideally in E-Commerce or Retail.
  • A clear understanding of premium service: digital and effortless where possible, and personal and solution-oriented where needed.
