Job description

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Head of Support based in France.

The Head of Support will lead and scale the customer support function for a portfolio of AI-powered wellness and HealthTech products. This strategic leadership role combines operational excellence, team development, and customer experience management within a fast-growing subscription-based business. You will oversee the entire support journey, from initial customer inquiries to subscription renewals, helping improve retention, reduce refunds, and strengthen customer satisfaction. Leading a remote, multinational team, you will establish scalable processes, define performance standards, and introduce automation to improve efficiency and service quality. You will also transform customer support data into actionable insights that inform product development, marketing strategies, and the overall user experience. With ownership of support operations, technology, budgeting, and team growth, you will have a direct influence on customer loyalty and business performance. This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced support leader who enjoys building high-performing teams, optimizing subscription experiences, and making a meaningful impact in digital wellness.

Accountabilities

• Customer Support Strategy and Operations: Own the overall customer support strategy and day-to-day operations across all products and communication channels, including email, in-app chat, and app store responses. Ensure a consistent, efficient, and customer-focused experience throughout the user lifecycle.

• Subscription Management and Payment Issues: Oversee customer cases involving subscription cancellations, refunds, billing disputes, and chargebacks. Collaborate with finance teams and payment providers to resolve issues efficiently and reduce preventable revenue losses.
• Customer Retention and Recovery: Develop and implement retention strategies within customer support, including save offers, win-back communication, and systematic tracking of cancellation reasons to identify opportunities to improve subscription retention.
• Customer Insights and Cross-Functional Collaboration: Analyze support interactions to identify recurring customer concerns, product bugs, onboarding difficulties, and paywall issues. Share actionable insights with product and marketing teams to improve customer experience and business outcomes.
• Support Technology and Automation: Select, implement, and optimize support platforms such as Zendesk, Front, Intercom, or equivalent tools. Introduce automation, AI-assisted responses, and workflow improvements to increase productivity while maintaining service quality.
• Budget and Resource Planning: Manage the customer support department's budget, staffing levels, and resource allocation, ensuring the team can scale effectively as the user base and product portfolio expand.
• Sensitive Case and Data Management: Ensure the responsible handling of sensitive customer topics, including health and alcohol-related concerns, while maintaining appropriate privacy and data protection practices.
• Escalation Management: Remain hands-on when necessary by personally managing complex, high-priority, or escalated customer cases and ensuring appropriate resolutions.

Requirements

• Professional Experience: At least five years of experience in customer support, including a minimum of three years leading a support team of eight or more people in a Head of Support, Support Manager, or Team Lead capacity.

• Support Metrics and Performance Optimization: Strong understanding of customer support KPIs and a demonstrated track record of improving performance. Candidates should be able to share measurable results related to CSAT, first response time, resolution time, refund rates, or other relevant indicators.
• Process Development and Scaling: Experience building customer support processes, operational frameworks, and documentation from the ground up, then adapting them to support a growing customer base.
• Support Platforms and Automation: Hands-on experience with customer support tools such as Zendesk, Front, Intercom, or similar platforms, including workflow configuration, automation, and service optimization.
• Payments and Subscription Operations: Practical understanding of subscription billing, refunds, chargebacks, payment processors, and payment systems such as Stripe, PayPal, Apple App Store, and Google Play.
• Data Analysis and Reporting: Strong analytical skills and confidence working with Excel, Google Sheets, and customer support analytics dashboards to evaluate performance, identify trends, and guide operational decisions.
• Leadership and Communication: Excellent people management, coaching, organizational, and communication skills, with the ability to motivate distributed teams and manage competing priorities effectively.
• Independent and Strategic Mindset: A proactive, hands-on approach to problem-solving, with the ability to balance strategic planning and operational execution in a fast-paced, evolving environment.
• English Proficiency: Fluent written and spoken English at C1 level or above, enabling effective communication with customers, colleagues, and leadership.
