Zip is tackling the $50B+TAM space to transform the way businesses manage spend. Our co-founders started Zip (YC S2020) because they saw the challenges companies had using outdated 20 year old software to manage hundreds of millions of dollars in spend every year. We invented the world’s leading Intake-to-Procure solution to bring a consumer grade user experience to B2B purchasing. And, we’re just getting started.

We're a fast growing team that helped scale category-defining companies like Airbnb, Facebook, Salesforce, Apple, Quora, Pinterest, and Square. With $81 million in funding from YC Continuity (Y Combinator), CRV and Tiger Global, we're valued at $1.2 billion in just 18 months. In today's economic climate, the value we offer our customers is more critical than ever and our business is accelerating. We're growing quickly and need your help!

The Role

We are looking for a highly motivated and results-driven Global Head of Support to lead the expansion and optimization of our support function across all regions. You will be responsible for developing and executing a global strategy that drives customer satisfaction, improves operational efficiency, and scales the support team effectively. Reporting directly to the CCO, you’ll play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our support operations.

In this role, you will establish the necessary tooling, processes, and analytics frameworks to measure and improve support performance. You will also build out our Product Support Engineering function, aiming to reduce the volume of issues requiring involvement from Engineering, Product, and Design teams (EPD). The ideal candidate will have proven experience scaling a support organization, a data-driven mindset, and a deep understanding of the challenges and opportunities in an Enterprise SaaS environment.

You Will

• Lead, mentor, and manage the global support team in multiple regions. Ensure that global processes, tools, and systems are consistent and optimized.

• Work closely with the CCO and Engineering to align support objectives with the company’s broader goals. Collaborate with senior leadership to ensure that customer feedback and support insights inform product development and operational improvements.

• Drive the scaling of the support organization from 5 to 50+ people, ensuring that the right processes, systems, and tools are in place for efficient and effective global support operations.

• Establish and optimize tooling, processes, and workflows that enable the support team to deliver consistent, high-quality service to customers across multiple regions.

• Design and develop the Product Support Engineering function, aimed at reducing the dependency on Engineering, Product, and Design teams by improving issue resolution quality and processes.

• Build robust tracking and reporting systems to measure support performance, analyze trends, and implement actionable insights to continuously improve the support function.

• Continuously identify bottlenecks or inefficiencies in the support process and implement improvements. Drive key performance metrics such as response time, resolution time, customer satisfaction (CSAT), and first contact resolution (FCR).

• Customer-Centric Culture: Foster a customer-first mentality throughout the organization, ensuring that every member of the support team is empowered to deliver excellent customer experiences.

• Ensure that the best practices in support operations are maintained and continuously improved across different regions, leveraging your experience in scaling small support teams in high-growth environments.

Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience in customer support, with a minimum of 5 years in leadership roles. Ideally, you have experience scaling a support organization (from 5 to 50+ people) in an Enterprise SaaS company.

• Demonstrated success in tracking, analyzing, and improving support performance. Expertise in designing and implementing performance dashboards and metrics that drive operational improvements.

• Hands-on experience in building out and optimizing product support functions, with a focus on reducing engineering, product, and design intervention.

• Proven ability to manage, coach, and scale support teams across different regions. Strong leadership skills, with the ability to inspire and align teams globally toward a common vision.

• Expertise in developing and scaling support processes, including the selection and implementation of support tools and platforms.

• Strong analytical skills with the ability to work with data to derive insights and drive continuous improvement. Experience with analytics platforms and performance reporting.

• In-depth knowledge of the unique challenges and requirements of scaling support in a fast-paced, high-growth SaaS environment.

• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, capable of presenting complex ideas to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• A passion for building and scaling support functions, with the excitement to apply your expertise in a rapidly growing company again.

  The salary range for this role is $160,000-$220,000. The salary for this position is determined based on a variety of job-related factors that may include location, relevant experience, education, or particular skills and expertise.
