Job description

Join a team that’s changing financial services

Zocks is the #1 AI assistant for financial advisors. We help advisors automate their operational work and grow their business. 5,000+ firms use Zocks to turn client conversations into completed work.

We're a venture-backed team, building something that changes how financial advisors serve their clients every day. Every role here is an opportunity to shape the product, the company, and the way an entire industry works. We hire sharp, curious, and kind people who want to do meaningful work and build something from the ground up, together.

WHO YOU ARE

The SHARC in the room

At Zocks, we hire for SHARC - five qualities that define how our best people work and win together.

S - Sharp

You move fast without cutting corners. Quick decisions, thoughtful execution - you know when to act independently and when to loop in leadership.

You're a self-starter who celebrates teammates as loudly as your own wins. Humble hustle is your default mode.

A - Adaptable

Startup life means things shift fast. You lean into change, pivot gracefully, and genuinely enjoy figuring out what's next.

R - Resilient

Building something new isn't always smooth. You bounce back stronger, see obstacles as puzzles, and never lose sight of the bigger picture.

C - Curious

You ask the questions others miss. You explore for fun, not just for work - and it shows in the quality of your thinking.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Our Denver team is growing! As Manager of Support, you lead the frontline team that is the face of Zocks to thousands of advisors every day. You'll manage our Enterprise and SMB Support Specialists — supported by a Support Team Lead — and own the operational engine that keeps ticket volume, responsiveness, and resolution quality at the most elite standard in the industry.

You'll be our frontline team’s core operator: hiring and onboarding frontline teammates, predicting and managing volume, and maintaining the processes that let the team scale. You'll partner closely with the Director of Support, the Technical Support and Premium Support functions, and cross-functional teams to make excellent frontline Support repeatable.

Performance & Reporting

• Own and drive Support team KPIs: CSAT, responsiveness and resolution metrics, ticket volume trends, and subject-matter trends.
• Own and drive QA outcomes and Tier 1 escalation reporting for the frontline team.

Operations Management

• Manage attendance: in-office commitment, punctuality, and PTO.
• Predict ticket volume and proactively dictate the assignment logic of daily Support work assignments across the team.

People Management

• Serve as hiring manager for frontline Support teammates, facilitating the interview process end-to-end.
• Facilitate the onboarding curriculum for new Support teammates.
• Meet with teammates 1:1, deliver QA results, ensure teammates consistently perform above established thresholds, and provide guidance that bolsters career growth, goal attainment, and job satisfaction.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Requirements

• 1–3 years of direct people management experience (up to 5 years if coming from a team lead role) — ideally your first or second step into people leadership, and excited to take that next step
• A servant leader mindset — you see the role as making your team successful
• Strong critical thinking and problem-solving skills — you can break down an issue, walk through your reasoning, and land on a clear next step
• Clear, direct communicator, especially under pressure — comfortable in fast-paced, operationally demanding environments (restaurants, retail, startups, SaaS, or similar)
• Comfortable creating simple, clear processes as the team grows, and helping others adopt them without confusion
• A high commitment to candor and consistency in how you communicate with your team
• A hyper-index on service and user experience — the attitude that every user gets the most elite Support experience in the industry
• Willingness to be in our Denver office a minimum of 3 days per week — leadership presence is important to driving team culture
• Experience administering Intercom (Fin) and ChiliPiper
• Experience creating knowledgebase documentation
• General care and discretion handling sensitive customer information
• Recent Support experience as an IC or Manager
