  • Drive operational alignment between customer service, planning, production, and quality to ensure customers receive reliable and accurate updates on timelines and order status.
  • Establish clear internal workflows for processing orders, managing changes, and resolving issues , ensuring ownership and accountability at each stage.
  • Serve as a champion for the voice of the customer in internal meetings and decision-making processes.
  • Track and report on key customer service metrics (e.g., on-time communication, response time, issue resolution rates) to inform improvements.
  • Coach team members through real-time correspondence reviews and feedback, ensuring tone, detail, and professionalism align with brand expectations.

Qualifications & Skills

  • 7+ years of customer-facing experience , including at least 2+ years in a leadership or team management role .
  • Background in manufacturing, electronics, or high-compliance industries (e.g., aerospace, defense, medical devices) strongly preferred.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage customer escalations , build trust, and provide transparent updates under pressure.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills —must be able to train others in email etiquette, response structure, and tone.
  • Experience setting up and refining customer service processes, including CRM or ticketing systems.
  • Naturally detail-oriented and highly responsive—able to juggle competing priorities and meet deadlines without sacrificing quality.

  • Competitive salary and leadership incentives
