Customer relationships are at the heart of everything we do.

Anchor Group Services is creating a new senior leadership role that will shape how we build lasting partnerships with our customers, strengthen service excellence and drive long-term business growth.

As our first Head of Customer Success, you will work alongside senior leaders, operational teams and some of our most valued clients to ensure we don't simply meet expectations - we consistently exceed them.

This is a unique opportunity to establish and lead our customer success strategy, helping to develop trusted partnerships, enhance the customer experience and identify opportunities that deliver lasting value for both our clients and our business.

If you are an experienced relationship leader who enjoys influencing at a strategic level, solving problems collaboratively and making a genuine impact, we would love to hear from you.

As Head of Customer Success, you will lead the strategic development of customer relationships across Anchor Group Services, ensuring our key accounts receive an exceptional, consistent and proactive customer experience.

Working closely with the Group Operations Director, operational leaders and business support functions, you will use customer insight, operational performance and commercial awareness to strengthen partnerships, improve customer retention and identify opportunities for sustainable growth. The role is predominantly field-based, requiring regular travel to customer sites across the UK, together with attendance at meetings and collaborative working sessions at our Chester Head Office.

This is not a traditional account management role. It's an opportunity to shape the future of customer success within a growing national business, influencing how we engage with customers and continuously improve the services we provide.
