Customer Experience Manager

Proven ability to build processes from scratch in a fast-paced environment

Nice To Haves

Experience in home services or subscription-based businesses
Familiarity with CRM systems (e.g., Real Green or similar platforms)

Build outreach strategies tailored to package customers and long-tenured accounts
