Develop and maintain procedural documentation to ensure clarity and consistency across processes, and take the lead in training and upskilling the wider team on best practices.
• System Optimisation: Enhance integrations between Shopify, Gorgias and Monday.com and implement AI systems to improve efficiency and reduce workload.
• Process Improvement: Implement best practices and automation to streamline workflows, reduce errors, and enhance productivity.

What You’ll Bring

• Proven experience in customer service management
• Strong leadership skills—you know how to motivate, mentor, and support a team.
• Exceptional problem-solving abilities with a customer-first mindset.
• Proficiency in ecommerce platforms like Shopify, Gorgias and Monday.com (or a strong ability to learn quickly).
• Analytical mindset—you use data and insights to drive improvements.
• A proactive, solutions-focused approach, with the ability to balance strategy and execution.
• Passion for process optimisation, ensuring efficiency without compromising customer experience.
