  • Lead the transition to 24/7 enterprise‑grade support (people, process, tooling, SLAs) and target 99.9% availability with various KPIs in close collaboration with our technical teams.

  • Establish incident/major incident and problem management, runbooks, and observability.

  • Own the implementation methodology and stage‑gates; manage training and ensure successful technical integrations by our customers, typical for airline IT (e.g., flight schedules/SSIM, SSO, weight & balance, passenger data). Set acceptance criteria and Time‑to‑Value targets.

  • Serve as first escalation at executive level; chair Steering Committees; run quarterly tactical, and annual executive reviews to align on goals and value.

  • Own the team operating budget and Implementation Services P&L (margin, utilization, SOW revenue). Partner with Sales/Finance on renewal/expansion forecasts.

What will make you successful

  • 10+ years in Customer Success and Implementation within B2B scale‑ups, including 3+ years leading multi‑team orgs (CS/Support/Implementation) in enterprise SaaS.
