Regional Manager, CX Support Operations - EMEA

Leeds / Hybrid - 3 days from office

About the Role

You will be the EMEA execution lead for CX Support Operations - owning day-to-day operational delivery and running a 'Find It Fix It' rapid action cadence to spot smoke, remove friction, and protect the post purchase consumer experience.

This is a hands on operator role: you will run daily controls and tasking, translate CX insights into clear defect hypotheses, and drive fast cross functional fixes with Logistics, DTC/eCommerce, Finance, Fraud, Technology/IT and CX Delivery partners.

What You'll Own EMEA Day to Day Operational Execution

• Run daily/weekly operational routines that keep order support healthy across EMEA markets.
• Lead triage and prioritisation of live order issues (payments, refunds, returns, carrier escalations, backorders, order corrections, address changes, exception handling).
• Own the EMEA escalation pathway for operational defects and exceptions: clear intake, severity rules, updates, and closure criteria.
• Maintain operational controls that reduce risk exposure and consumer harm.

Find It Fix It (Rapid Action Continuous Improvement)

• Operate a repeatable 'Find It Fix It' cycle:
• Find It: detect smoke via CX signals (contacts, defect tags, WISMO, payment failure trends, refund ageing, carrier scan anomalies, backlog aging).
• Fix It: drive rapid root cause, propose the smallest effective fix, mobilise the right partners, confirm impact, then standardise.
• Build and manage the EMEA defect backlog (what it is, why it matters, who owns it, by when, and how we'll measure improvement).
• Drive closure of recurring defects by fixing process, policy, content, tooling, or partner handoffs.

CX Data Insight Action

• Use CX operational and contact data to:
• Identify friction and failure demand.
• Quantify impact (contacts, cost, refunds, SLA misses, delivery promise performance).
• Prioritise the backlog with clear rationale.
• Create simple, trusted reporting that tells the story: "what's broken, what we're doing, what moved."

Partner Leadership Across EMEA

• Act as the day to day operational partner for Logistics, DTC/eCommerce, Finance, Fraud, and Technology.
• Create clear working agreements for:
• Escalations and incident response.
• Ownership of fixes.
• Release/rollout comms to CX Delivery.
• Documentation and training.

Standards, Documentation, and Enablement

• Maintain EMEA process and policy documentation (SOPs, playbooks, escalation guides).
• Enable front line and Tier 2 teams through:
• Clear workflows and decision trees.
• Templates/macros/content updates.
• Targeted training for new changes.

Key Relationships

• Director, CX Support Operations (manager): priorities, escalation, governance, performance.
• CX Delivery leaders (BPO and/or in house): operational outcomes, readiness, training, defect feedback loop.
• Logistics/ Supply Chain / Carriers: delivery exceptions, claims, scan issues, warehouse exceptions.
• DTC/eCommerce & Order Management: order flows, promise rules, promotions, cancellations, substitutions.
• Finance / Payments / Fraud: disputes, chargebacks, failed payments, refund controls, risk.
• Technology / IT / CX Systems: incident response, access governance inputs, defect remediation.

What Success Looks Like

Operational control: daily routines in place; escalations are predictable, fast, and closed with clear outcomes.

• Friction reduction: measurable reduction in EMEA order related contacts (WISMO, refunds, payment failures, delivery exceptions).
• Defect closure: an EMEA defect backlog exists with owners and dates; recurring issues are reduced and prevented.
• Speed to fix: time from 'smoke spotted' 'fix released' decreases; fewer repeat incidents.
• Partner confidence: Logistics/DTC/Finance/IT partners trust the process and see clear value in prioritisation and communication.
• Team enablement: front line teams have better tooling, SOPs, and training; less manual firefighting.

Required Experience

• 5+ years in CX Operations / Post purchase operations / eCommerce operations / Logistics exception management.
• Proven experience running daily operational routines and handling live escalations.
• Strong analytical capability: turning operational/contact data into clear priorities and actions.
• Track record delivering process improvement in a matrix environment.
• Comfort working across multiple EMEA markets and nuances.

Preferred Experience

• DTC or omnichannel retail experience.
• Exposure to OMS/CRM and contact centre tooling (no deep engineering required).
• Experience working with payments (Klarna/PayPal/Braintree), refunds/returns, and carrier escalation paths.
• Experience operating incident response / defect management cadence.
