Job description

Foodhub is an international hospitality technology company providing online ordering, EPOS, payments, kiosks and digital solutions to hospitality businesses across the Globe, including the UK, Ireland, America, and ANZ.

Experience in managing teams, responsible for EPOS installations, on-site customer support, technical troubleshooting, equipment deployment, or supporting technology across multiple customer locations would be particularly relevant to Foodhub.

Customer & Partner Management

• Act as the senior operational contact for key customer escalations.
• Build long-term relationships with restaurant partners.
• Collaborate closely with Sales, Customer Success, Product and Technical Support teams.
• Ensure excellent customer experience and partner satisfaction.
• Support commercial initiatives including customer retention, product adoption and upselling opportunities.

What We're Looking For

• Proven experience managing field-based teams across multiple locations, ideally within EPOS/POS, payments, hospitality technology, SaaS, or similar technology-led environments.
• Experience in managing teams responsible for EPOS/POS installations, technical support, customer implementations, hardware deployment, maintenance or on-site customer service is highly desirable.
• Strong people leadership, coaching and performance management experience.
• Comfortable spending the majority of the working week travelling across the UK to support customers and field teams.
• Excellent relationship-building and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to work effectively with customers, engineers, internal teams and senior stakeholders.
• Strong operational planning and problem-solving skills, particularly within a technology or field-service environment.
• Ability to work independently, manage multiple priorities and respond effectively to customer and operational issues.
• Commercial mindset, with experience driving customer engagement, retention, account growth or upselling.
• Full UK Driving Licence and access to a car.

What Success Looks Like

• High-performing, motivated field team.
• Excellent customer satisfaction and partner relationships.
