My client is a market-leading organisation and recognised industry leader operating within a high-volume, customer-centric environment. They are launching a major transformation programme to redesign how customer support is delivered, using AI, automation, and smarter operational design to improve service quality while scaling efficiently. This is a true end-to-end transformation role. You will establish a lean support function, select and implement the right AI-enabled support platform, and lead the full transition into a scalable in-house operation built for long-term growth. This is not a coordination role. We need someone who can lead with conviction, move quickly, make decisions in ambiguity, and take ownership from first principles through to full operational delivery. Speed is critical. The project must mobilise immediately, generate meaningful performance data quickly, and enable key strategic decisions within the second half of the year.
Job Responsibility:
Own and deliver the full transformation from discovery through to rollout with minimal oversight
Establish governance, reporting cadence, stakeholder communication, and executive decision points
Manage risks, blockers, and cross-functional delivery across Finance, Commercial, Legal, People, Systems, and Engineering
Assess current support operations including cost base, volumes, SLAs, supplier model, and customer satisfaction
Build and maintain the financial model and produce a board-ready business case
Identify savings opportunities across AI deflection, automation, productivity, supplier strategy, and operating model redesign
Lead evaluation and implementation of AI-enabled support platforms such as Zendesk, Salesforce Service Cloud, Intercom, and similar tools
Define selection criteria around AI capability, workflow automation, CRM integration, and reporting
Oversee platform setup, routing workflows, self-service capability, dashboards, and the long-term technology blueprint
Design a layered support model across self-service, operational support, escalations, and premium service functions
Build SOPs, QA frameworks, escalation paths, and service standards
Launch the initial model quickly, stabilise performance, and track KPIs including volumes, response times, CSAT, productivity, and cost per resolution
Deliver the final recommendation and transition into a permanent AI-first support function built to scale without linear cost growth
Requirements:
Proven experience leading customer support transformations or operational insourcing programmes
Strong commercial acumen with the ability to build and defend financial business cases
Experience implementing AI-powered support platforms or CRM systems
Comfortable operating at pace in high-stakes, ambiguous environments
Strong stakeholder management across business, operations, finance, legal, and technology teams
Experience managing supplier transitions and service redesign
Clear communicator able to produce executive-ready outputs and drive decisions
Nice to have:
Experience with Zendesk, Salesforce Service Cloud, Intercom, or similar platforms
Background in high-growth, technology-led or customer-centric businesses
Experience building AI deflection, auto-triage, and workflow automation solutions from scratch
