About Odyssey: K-12 education is one of the most consequential determinants of a child’s future — and many families have had limited ability to shape how and where their child learns. Education Savings Account (ESA) programs are changing that. One of the fastest-growing public education initiatives in the U.S., they give states the ability to put education funding directly in the hands of families, who can then choose the learning experiences that best fit their child — from schools and tutors to therapy, curriculum, and technology. But once these policies are signed into law, states face an enormous operational challenge. They must stand up entirely new programs, manage the secure and compliant flow of public funds, approve and monitor thousands of vendors, support families at scale, and prevent fraud — all while delivering a high-quality user experience. That’s where Odyssey comes in. We partner with state agencies to design, launch, and operate ESA and grant programs on their behalf. We provide the technology, program operations, vendor ecosystem, and family experience that make these programs actually work in the real world. Today, we operate across 6 states, and our platform powers programs serving 200,000+ students and over $1B in education funding — and we’re just getting started. Most recently, we launched the Texas Education Savings Account (EFA) program — the biggest day-one ESA launch in the country — which has already received over 100,000 applications. It’s the kind of moment that captures exactly what we’re building toward: programs that work at scale, from day one, when it matters most. We’re backed by respected investors, including a16z and Tusk Venture Partners, and we’re building the team that will take us to the next stage. Odyssey sits at the intersection of GovTech, EdTech, and FinTech. We are a public-sector operator, a technology company, and a program delivery partner all at once. The work we do is civic infrastructure — it determines whether families can access life-changing educational opportunities. Why This Work Is Different This is not a traditional SaaS role. There’s no clean playbook. Every state is a new launch — new policy, new constraints, new stakeholders, new operational model. We’re in the weeds with state partners, shipping while building the plane, and turning ambiguous policy into real systems that families depend on. If you thrive in highly structured environments, this will feel uncomfortable. If you want ownership, speed, and problems that actually matter, you’ll feel right at home. About the Role: We’re looking for a customer-obsessed, data-driven leader to own and elevate our Customer Support performance across all channels. In this role, you’ll be responsible for driving operational excellence, developing frontline talent, and ensuring we consistently deliver a high-quality, empathetic experience to the families we serve, especially within our State Programs. You’ll play a critical role in shaping support strategy, owning key performance metrics, and partnering cross-functionally to continuously improve how we operate. This is a hands-on leadership role that balances performance management, people development, and process improvement. What You’ll Do: Performance & Strategy Own customer support performance across channels (phone, chat, email) Accountable for SLAs, AHT, CSAT, quality, retention, and key metrics Conduct recurring channel assessments using reports and quality measures Own State Program KPIs and SLAs in line with company expectations and in accordance with the program guidelines Develop and execute State Program operational strategies in partnership with Implementation Team Leverage performance data and reporting to drive insights, recommendations, and improvements People & Leadership Directly lead and develop your team of Support Specialists through coaching, motivation, and support Enable Support Specialists to deliver exceptional service across all channels Act as a key liaison between frontline Support Specialists and Support Leadership Quality, Escalations & Risk Management Identify potential risks to Odyssey’s Support operation and the State Program, resolve issues, and implement risk mitigation plans Run weekly interaction calibration sessions to ensure alignment on agent performance and quality expectations Serve as primary point of contact for State Program escalations Proactively share performance feedback with Support leadership Process Excellence & Continuous Improvement Partner with Head of Support to enhance processes Conduct process reviews and establish best practices Document and memorialize process improvements Champion a continuous improvement mindset across Support and within State Programs About You: 4+ years of experience leading and developing customer support or customer experience teams Proven ability to coach, motivate, and performance-manage frontline specialists across phone, chat, and email channels Strong track record of owning team performance metrics, including SLAs, AHT, NPS, quality, and retention Experienced people leader who builds trust, accountability, and high-performing teams A proactive problem-solver who brings structure, clarity, and calm to complex or high-pressure situations Comfortable operating in fast-paced, ambiguous, and evolving environments Highly collaborative, with experience partnering cross-functionally to execute operational strategies Strong operational mindset with a passion for process improvement, documentation, and scalability High agency leader who takes ownership and drives initiatives from concept to execution Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to clearly communicate expectations, policies, and performance insights Experienced in managing escalations, quality standards, and risk in customer-facing environments Motivated by mission-driven work and excited to make a meaningful impact through Odyssey’s mission Additional Details: Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis. We believe that everyone at Odyssey should be compensated fairly. We set our salary bands based on compensation data from hundreds of companies at our stage. The salary range for this role is $60,000 - $80,000 depending on experience, interview performance and location. Priority will be given to candidates who are based in the New York Tri-state area, Texas, Georgia, Louisiana, Iowa, Utah, or Wyoming Odyssey benefits include Medical/Dental/Vision plan(s), health services, short term disability, unlimited PTO and more. Our Commitment to Equal Opportunity Employment: Odyssey is an equal opportunity employer. Reasonable accommodations are available upon request. Why Odyssey: Sitting at the intersection of tech, government, and education, Odyssey offers potential applicants an immediate and substantive impact for students and families. Supported by well-known investors and advisors, we are gaining traction quickly with ample opportunity for growth. As our team expands, we are looking for top-tier talent to join our mission in driving the future of education forward.
