Greenhouse is looking for a Manager, Technical Support to join our team. In this role, you'll lead a team of frontline Technical Support Specialists dedicated to solving complex customer issues - not just managing tickets, but owning the customer experience end to end. Reporting to the Director of Technical Support, you'll bridge technical troubleshooting and high-level strategy, ensuring your team has the tools, training, and temperament to excel in a fast-paced environment.

Who will love this job

• A coach – you have a natural leadership style that brings out the best in others; your team trusts you to guide their growth, not just their output

• A data detective – you dig into metrics to find the story behind the numbers and use what you find to make better decisions for your team and your customers

• A calm in the storm – outages, volume spikes, and escalations don't rattle you; you lead with clarity when the pressure is highest

• A champion – you advocate for your team's needs internally and for your customers' experience cross-functionally, even when it's not the easy path

• A systems thinker – you spot patterns in support tickets and follow them upstream — pushing for root cause fixes rather than repeat workarounds

What you’ll do

• Manage a team of Technical Support Specialists, ensuring they have the tools, knowledge, and support to solve complex customer problems

• Monitor individual and team metrics — CSAT, QA scores, tickets taken, and reopen rates — and translate data into meaningful coaching and process decisions

• Coach team members on personal and professional development through dedicated 1:1s and regular performance conversations

• Lead team meetings that connect day-to-day work to the bigger picture, keeping your team motivated and aligned on goals

• Identify patterns in support tickets and advocate for product and process changes that address root causes, not just symptoms

• Foster a team environment built on psychological safety, high standards, and genuine care — recognising strong performance and addressing burnout early

• Partner with cross-functional teams —product, enablement, and beyond — to resolve complex customer issues and influence strategic workflows

• Additional projects and responsibilities as business needs require

You should have

• 5+ years in Technical Support, with at least 2–4 years in a people management role

• Proven experience in a customer-facing team in a mentorship capacity (Senior level or above)

• Outstanding customer service skills – empathetic, responsive, and solutions-focused

• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills

• Experience using AI tools to improve support functions for your team and customers

• Zendesk experience

• A proven track record of staying calm under pressure during outages or high-volume periods

• Experience in recruiting and hiring, a plus

• Your own unique talents! Your background has given you a unique perspective and set of transferable skills that aren’t always in alignment with a given role — but those are qualities we value at Greenhouse. If you don’t meet 100% of the qualifications outlined above, we still strongly encourage you to apply
