What the job involves
- The Support Operations Manager is a critical role on the Customer Experience Strategy & Operations team, dedicated to driving the efficiency and effectiveness of our Customer Support organization
- This role is a blend of strategic planning and hands-on execution
- You will be responsible for transforming data into action—analyzing ticket trends to provide meaningful insights, redesigning processes for greater efficiency, and implementing system changes that empower the team to deliver high quality support
- You will also own workforce management, creating a data-driven approach to scheduling and resource planning that ensures we deliver on our promises to customers
- Stakeholder Management: Serve as the primary business partner to the Head of Support and the leadership team, acting as a trusted advisor across all aspects of the business. You will drive operational excellence by partnering on strategy, planning, execution, and delivering critical insights through data and analytics
- Data-Driven Strategy: Define, monitor, and report on key Support KPIs and team performance metrics. You will leverage these insights to partner with leadership on optimizing our channel strategies and team workflows

Our take
Business contracting is often inefficient and messy, with approvals required from various stakeholders and many processes still paper-based. Ironclad is a platform that digitises, automates, and streamlines contract workflows, allowing legal teams to focus on legal work rather than paperwork. Ironclad’s platform features collaborative tools that facilitate business operations and extract and catalog contract metadata, making information easier to access and act upon. Its enterprise customers include Dropbox, Mastercard, Pixar, Fox, and L’Oréal.
Despite its success, Ironclad faces competition in the $3 billion contract lifecycle management industry from major players like DocuSign and emerging ones like Contractbook. The company recently announced Ironclad Signature, marking its entry into the $25 billion eSignature market. The new feature speeds up the signature process by an estimated 80% and provides summaries and approval histories to users. This new tool is expected to strengthen Ironclad's position in the sell-side contract lifecycle management market.
Additionally, Ironclad introduced value-based pricing, charging only for completed, signed agreements, unlike other providers who charge for every signature packet sent out. Ironclad, backed by investors like Accel, Sequoia, Y Combinator, and BOND, remains committed to innovating and maintaining its leadership in the contract lifecycle management space.
