SVP of Software Customer Support - $400k/year - Remote Work

We're running an Online Hiring Event this Saturday to hire SVPs of Software Customer Support ($400K/yr).
Online Hiring Events are live forums designed to enable you to understand the role and requirements through an interactive Q&A session followed by a self-directed testing process. The testing takes between 3-5 hours to complete. It’s worth taking the time to finish all the tests because we evaluate every single complete application to find the top talent.
This event will include all testing required to apply for the role. Upon grading the tests, and if you advance, we will set up an interview with the hiring manager.

The SVP of Software Customer Support will be expected to react quickly and make critical decisions on a daily basis. Our products are never offline, and there’s a requirement to have an always-on mentality.
The ideal candidate will need to have a hunger for new challenges. While the typical Customer Support organization sets readily achievable targets, we don’t. We want more than reasonable, we set high-quality bars, and we push for constant improvements until we feel we have reached excellence.
In this position, you will be expected to deliver weekly, monthly and quarterly improvements to the quality of software support. You will be measured by quality metrics, customer NPS scores, and productivity of software support resolutions, measured by total cost per ticket.
As a senior manager, you will be responsible for recruiting best in class VPs. You will need to have the ability to identify key skills to build your team. You will need to coach your VPs on what we believe top quality service is, to make sure they develop and nurture their own teams toward a common goal of excellence. We need the SVP of Software Customer Support to raise the level of the team performance in our atypical fast paced environment.
 
Your daily activities would look as follows:
 
Deep dives into weekly metrics, and escalations
Prepare weekly business reviews for the COO
Conduct weekly 1:1 meeting with VPs to review metrics, blockers and conduct call, ticket analysis, if necessary
Coach VPs and make a critical decision on staffing accuracy
Lead weekly meetings to communicate team updates, process changes, and/or improvements
Leverage your broad technical customer support experience and maintain energy levels in your teams, and ensure successful delivery of software support to our customers
 
Candidate Requirements:

• Master’s degree or equivalent


• Pristine spoken English


• +15 years of software support experience


• Previously a team of at least +150 individual contributors


• Strong people management experience having already managed +4 team managers


• Experience dealing with 5M/year USD budget


• Extensive experience measuring the quality of service delivered through NPS


• Strong organizational, planning, leadership and presentation skills, all delivered with a confident and professional manner


• Excellent soft skills, including critical thinking, decision making, conflict resolution, and analytical skills


• Committed to self-development and the professional growth of others


• A passion for creating work in a process-driven way and working with team members to continuously improve the process


• Excellent at reducing overly complicated and unstructured answers into a set of simple and structured decisions

Crossover connects talent from around the globe with companies who are looking to hire only the best. We have more than 1850+ people from 98 different countries working full time (40 hrs/wk) for our clients and we are growing quickly as we have more customer demand than we can find good people.

We are also a mission-driven company. In other words, we believe in providing people with high-paying, long-term jobs/careers. We are not a marketplace in which companies are trying to hire someone at bottom basement rates for temporary work.

Finding reliable, fairly compensated freelance or contract work can be a challenge. And sifting through sites filled with short-term gigs listed at rock-bottom rates is discouraging.

You’re worth more than that. At Crossover, we understand that you’re looking for long-term contracts and competitive compensation. And that’s just what we offer to candidates who have the skills and experience to stand out and the willingness to complete our rigorous evaluation process.

All of our jobs are location-independent, intended to be multi-year in duration, and offer high rates by U.S. standards. We match talented people with great companies for long-term, remote working relationships that are a win-win for everyone.
