Role

Who you are

Have 3–8 years of experience managing B2B SaaS support teams, ideally across time zones and customer segments
Know what great looks like, but love building from scratch—your mindset is scrappy, strategic, and customer-first
Have strong operational chops: You understand and act on support metrics, escalations, tools, and systems
Are excited by the role of AI in support and have already experimented or deployed AI tools to boost productivity or CX
Communicate with clarity and confidence, whether talking to a customer or presenting to executives
Thrive in fast-moving environments where ambiguity is the norm and experimentation is encouraged
(Bonus) Have an active voice in the support community, or experience building a support automation playbook

What the job involves

As the hands-on leader of our growing support team, you’ll combine tactical excellence with visionary leadership
You’ll manage a team that supports hundreds of customers—from high-growth startups to global enterprises
You’ll hire and mentor top talent, refine systems and workflows, and act as a trusted voice both inside and outside the company
This is a high-impact, high-visibility role at a company that builds for support teams—and where support is at the center of the product
Lead and scale a high-performing support team: Manage a team of experienced agents across SF, NY, and (soon) the UK. Attract, hire, and grow exceptional talent
Drive operational excellence: Own key support metrics (CSAT, SLA, backlog, handle time) and continuously improve our processes and systems
Innovate with AI and automation: Implement and refine workflows that combine human judgment and AI assistance to create best-in-class experiences
Own escalations and incident comms: Act as a calm, confident voice in critical customer moments. Communicate clearly with customers and internally during high-impact issues
Partner cross-functionally: Collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, Design, and Success to bring the voice of the customer into product development and service design
Champion support as a strategic function: Share learnings externally, contribute to the support community, and help define what excellent support looks like in the AI era

Our take

Assembled's platform helps companies manage and scale their customer support services. Customer service management is just one of the many areas that are being overhauled by digital transformation. Assembled helps streamline cumbersome and error-prone customer support processes - such as planning support rosters, forecasting demand, and evaluating team performance.

Assembled already counts companies like Zoom, GoFundMe and Stripe on its customer books, and finds huge opportunity in key industries like eCommerce and food deliveries that have been seeing massive digital overhauls. Having received significant investment, the company seems set on continued growth, with funds cited to support product development as well as help launch its CX Scholars initiative, that will commit a percentage of revenue to continuing education for support workers.
