Customer Operations Manager

Our mission is to increase the success rate of small businesses. Traditional banking has been a growth limiter rather than a growth enabler for business owners, and we’re changing that.

Delivering a great customer experience for SMBs is a key differentiator for us, and we are investing heavily in building a world‑class support team (CX). As part of our next stage of growth, we need to invest in our CX Operations team to ensure we don’t sacrifice quality and instead continue to better service our customers. We’re looking for our first Customer Operations Manager to join our team and help us enhance our customer journey, streamline our processes, and foster a customer‑centric culture.

This includes driving Learning & Development (L&D) initiatives and implementing automation strategies. You will collaborate cross‑functionally with Support, Product, and Operations to ensure smooth workflows, efficient handling of customer inquiries, and continuous improvement in service quality.
