THE ROLE

The CCoE Lead plays a pivotal role in delivering high-quality customer outcomes across a blended landscape of product support, platform stability, technology troubleshooting, and customer service. This role is accountable for driving operational and technical excellence, empowering teams to work across service domains — from traditional service desk to modern SaaS/platform support.

You will lead a high-agency team capable of supporting complex systems, conducting root cause analysis, maintaining SLAs and knowledgebases, and applying GenAI and automation to improve user experience and operational efficiency. This is a hands-on leadership role combining customer empathy, service performance, and technical depth.

Key Responsibilities

• Technical Oversight: Lead multi-layered support across applications, platforms, and service infrastructure (including SaaS products, enterprise tools, customer platforms).
• Incident Ownership & Resolution: Ensure accurate triage and root-cause-led resolution of production issues, across both technology and service domains.
• Platform Support Leadership: Coordinate support across core product features, configurations, performance queries, and user onboarding/training.
• Customer Advocacy: Represent the user’s voice in triage, retros, and product improvements. Surface common pain points and influence fixes.
• GenAI & Automation Leadership: Guide the design and adoption of AI-powered workflows, triage bots, and proactive issue resolution.
• Process & Outcome Delivery: Ensure adherence to SLA/CSAT/FCR metrics with a structured focus on continuous improvement and quality assurance.
• Team Development: Coach and mentor a cross-functional support team, instilling high-agency behaviours, strong documentation habits, and technical curiosity.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Engineering, Product, Service Management, and InfoSec teams to ensure coherent and secure operations.
• Knowledge Management: Ensure product support knowledge is current, reusable, and integrated into self-service and chatbot workflows.

THE IDEAL CANDIDATE

• 6+ years in customer operations, platform/product support, or technology service roles.
• Proven ability to lead blended technical-support teams (application support, ITSM, knowledge, customer service).
• Hands-on technical knowledge in areas such as:
• Application support, release and incident triage
• Familiarity with modern enterprise systems (SaaS, APIs, ITSM platforms)
• ITIL or ISO-aligned operations
• Workflow, configuration, or rule-based logic (e.g., ServiceNow, Freshservice, Jira SD)
• Experience in public sector, regulated industries or multi-region support (UK preferred).
• Comfortable engaging with stakeholders on operational, technical and product matters.
• Strong communicator with a bias toward clarity, transparency and customer outcomes.
• Mindset of proactive learning and leadership — especially in the use of AI tools and process automation.

What Success Looks Like

• You own problems end-to-end — across tech, people and process.
• You communicate with structure and empathy — never vague, never late.
• You improve what you touch — knowledge, workflows, service experience.
• You use automation and AI to reduce effort and increase quality.
• You learn fast, coach others, and care about outcomes.
