The Work You'll Do

At Sovos, we're transforming how companies around the world manage tax compliance — helping half of the Fortune 500 and thousands more stay ahead in a complex, ever-changing regulatory landscape. As a Manager, Customer Support, you'll lead a team of support professionals to deliver consistent, high‑quality service across all customer‑facing channels. This role combines strong people leadership with a results‑driven operational mindset — balancing team development, process improvement, and cross‑functional collaboration to protect customer satisfaction and drive business outcomes.

More specifically, you will:

• Lead, coach, and develop a team of Customer Support Analysts, Specialists, and/or Engineers, fostering a high‑performance and customer‑first culture

• Promote a psychologically safe and inclusive environment where team members can raise concerns, share ideas, and continuously improve
• Own the day‑to‑day operations of the support team, ensuring coverage, workload balance, and queue health across all support channels
• Monitor and manage team adherence to SLAs for first response, assignment, and resolution targets
• Drive escalation management processes — ensure escalated cases are handled with urgency, proper documentation, and root cause follow‑through
• Maintain high‑quality ticketing hygiene and enforce case documentation standards within the CRM/ticketing system (preferably Salesforce)
• Leverage AI tools to improve operations; identify and implement process improvements that reduce repeat contacts, improve resolution times, and eliminate friction for customers and agents
• Manage shift schedules, capacity planning, and resource allocation to maintain optimal staffing levels
• Own and report on key support KPIs including CSAT, SLA compliance, escalation rate, reopen rate, first response time, and case volume trends
• Analyze operational data to identify patterns, anomalies, and improvement opportunities; translate insights into action plans
• Present regular performance reports to leadership with commentary on variances, root causes, and recommended actions
• Drive continuous improvement initiatives with measurable outcomes; track progress against defined goals
• Serve as the primary operational liaison between Customer Support and teams including Customer Success, Product, Engineering, and Professional Services
• Coordinate with Product and Engineering on incident management, escalations, and systemic issues impacting multiple customers
• Contribute to the Voice of the Customer programme — surface recurring themes and systemic gaps to internal stakeholders
• Support the development and maintenance of knowledge base content, internal runbooks, and SOPs for the team

What We Need From You

• 3+ years of experience in customer support, customer service, or technical support roles
• 1+ year of experience in a people management or team lead capacity, with direct responsibility for performance management
• Demonstrated ability to analyse operational data and translate findings into concrete process improvements
• Experience working with CRM and ticketing platforms (preferably Salesforce)
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage competing priorities in a fast‑paced environment
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills with a customer‑first mindset
• Ability to influence cross‑functional stakeholders without direct authority
