Responsibilities

• Regional Customer Success Leadership – Serve as the senior customer success leader for the region, accountable for the quality, consistency, and outcome of all customer-facing service activity across deployment and operations. The RHCS sets the standard for customer engagement across all four Lines of Service, drives a customer-first culture across SDMs and dotted-line functions, and ensures that every program in the region reflects Global Services delivery standards
• Deployment & Program Delivery Oversight – During active deployment phases, including program change, BAU change, security change, and maintenance activities, ensures that all Lines of Service are mobilized, coordinated, and executing to contracted scope and schedule. Coordinate readiness activities across Contact Center, Technology & Service Operations, Field Services, and Financial Services ahead of major go-lives and change events. Ensure SDMs are embedded and effective across all active deployment programs within the region and that customers receive proactive, high-quality engagement throughout the deployment lifecycle
• Service Operations & BAU Performance – In steady-state operations, ensure that contracted SLAs and KPIs are consistently met or exceeded across all programs and Lines of Service within the region. Maintain regional oversight of service performance, incident management, ticket resolution, and escalation handling.

Provide consolidated regional performance visibility to the Senior Director, Customer Success, including risk flags, trend analysis, and improvement initiatives
• Escalation Ownership & Management – Own regional escalation management across all programs, ensuring timely resolution of high-severity incidents and complex service failures. Act as the primary escalation point of contact for SDMs across programs within the region. Support SDMs in managing escalations and ensuring clear ownership and rapid resolution pathways. Coordinate cross-functional responses across technical, operational, and service teams. Engage customers directly on critical incidents where issues exceed SDM scope. Align SDMs, Technology & Service Operations leadership, and functional teams to resolve complex, cross-program, or systemic issues. Ensure escalation closure with documented root-cause analysis and corrective actions. Provide timely visibility and structured updates to leadership on all high-priority issues. Reduce the escalation burden on the Senior Director, Customer Success and CSO by owning regional resolution pathways end-to-end. Drive consistent escalation handling practices across the region
• Cross-Line-of-Service Coordination – Coordinate service delivery across all four Lines of Service to ensure seamless, integrated customer outcomes. Resolve cross-functional dependencies, manage service handoffs, and ensure that no program or customer falls through the gaps between service functions. Lateral engagement with Contact Center, Technology & Service Operations, Field Services, and Financial Services leadership is a core and ongoing requirement of this role
• SDM Performance & Capability – Provide direction, coaching, and performance oversight to SDMs with a dotted-line relationship to this role. Ensure SDMs implement best practices in service governance, customer engagement, and escalation handling. Monitor SDM performance against regional standards and intervene where gaps are identified. Drive capability development across the SDM population in the region, reinforcing consistent application of Global Services frameworks
• Matrix Resource Coordination – Coordinate the activities of dotted-line resources, including SDMs, Business Analysts, Release Management & Planning functions, and Technical Account Managers, across programs in the region. Ensure these resources are prioritized effectively, operating to common standards, and contributing to regional customer outcomes in a coordinated manner. Navigate the matrix structure to remove blockers and align effort across functions
• Standardization & Continuous Improvement – Reinforce standardized governance cadence, reporting structures, KPI frameworks, and service improvement methodologies across all programs within the region. Identify best practices from individual programs and drive replication across the regional portfolio.
