What You'll Do

Customer Experience & Clienteling

Oversee and elevate the Customer Care experience across E-Commerce, retail, using phone, email, live chat, and other digital channels, ensuring consistency with the brand's luxury standards. Set the vision for personalized, concierge-level service, coaching the team to anticipate and exceed client needs throughout the journey — from product discovery and styling to order assistance and post-purchase support. Establish frameworks for elevated product recommendations and digital styling, ensuring the team uses product knowledge, client preferences, and purchase history to personalize experiences, at scale. Drive strategies for proactive outreach that strengthen relationships, deepen loyalty, and grow repeat business.

E-Commerce & Commercial Growth

Partner with E-Commerce, CRM, and Buying/Merchandising to inform commercial strategy, drive sales targets, and identify product opportunities, client pain points, and digital performance trends. Lead the team in converting service interactions into sales — driving clients relationships by growing cross‑selling, upselling, and retention through personalized clienteling. Monitor key clienteling and business KPIs, translating performance data into actionable strategies that drive results.

Team Leadership & Operations

Lead day‑to‑day Customer Care activity, ensuring timely, effective resolution of client inquiries across all channels. Establish workflows and service standards that ensure consistency across touchpoints and serve as a mentor to the team on clienteling, styling, and product knowledge. Escalate complex client situations and proactively identify process improvements. Ensure seamless continuity between digital and in‑store client experiences by partnering with Retail and Italy‑based counterparts on operational issues.

With the help of CRM, analyze Customer Care and E-Commerce data to identify trends and opportunities, maintaining reporting in Excel and other systems for CRM, E-Commerce, Retail, and leadership. Track performance against service and commercial KPIs, providing recommendations and ad‑hoc analysis as needed.
