Job Description

Director - Technical Support

EDB

Role Description EDB is seeking a transformational Director of Technical Support for the Europe, Middle East, Africa (EMEA) region. This is a high-impact leadership role responsible for building, scaling, and elevating a regional support organization that serves enterprise customers across diverse markets and time zones. The successful candidate will be a strategic leader and change agent who can balance operational rigor with a deeply customer-centric culture — driving service excellence, team development, and regional alignment with global support objectives. This role sits at the intersection of people leadership, operational strategy, and customer experience. While a working appreciation of enterprise database environments is valued, the primary mandate is organizational leadership: developing high-performing teams, establishing scalable processes, and partnering cross-functionally to deliver measurable business value across the EMEA region. Qualifications - 8+ years of progressive leadership experience in technical support, customer service, or service delivery, with at least 3 years at the Director level or equivalent senior management role. - Demonstrated success leading large, geographically distributed support teams across the EMEA region — ideally including UK, EU, Middle East and Africa. - Proven track record in high-volume, high-paced SaaS or enterprise technology support environments. - Experience managing regional P&L or budget responsibility, including workforce planning, vendor management, and operational cost optimization. - Deep expertise in change management and organizational transformation — you have led teams through significant operational or cultural shifts and can point to measurable outcomes. - Strong stakeholder management and executive communication skills, with the ability to influence and align across Sales, Product, Engineering, and C-suite audiences. - Hands-on experience with customer support platforms, CRM systems, and contact center technologies (e.g., Salesforce Service Cloud, Zendesk, or equivalent). Requirements - Lead, inspire, and grow a high-performing EMEA technical support organization spanning multiple countries and time zones. - Develop and execute a regional support roadmap aligned with EDB's global strategy, customer commitments, and business growth targets. - Foster a culture of accountability, continuous improvement, inclusion, and customer-first thinking across all levels of the team. - Serve as the senior escalation point and executive voice of support for the EMEA region, representing the organization to internal stakeholders and enterprise customers. - Define regional hiring plans, organizational structure, and career development pathways to attract and retain top support talent. - Oversee day-to-day support operations across EMEA, ensuring high-quality, consistent service delivery in adherence to SLAs, SLOs, and customer commitments. - Define, monitor, and report on regional KPIs — including CSAT, NPS, time-to-resolution, escalation rates, and backlog health — to senior leadership. - Drive continuous improvement through data-driven analysis, process optimization, and structured operational reviews. - Implement and refine escalation management frameworks, ensuring critical issues are handled with urgency, transparency, and cross-functional coordination. - Manage resource capacity planning and workforce models to support a 24x7 follow-the-sun support model effectively. - Champion the adoption of Generative AI, intelligent automation, and self-service tools to modernize the support experience and reduce resolution times. - Partner with global counterparts to build and maintain a robust AI-powered knowledge library that empowers both customers and support engineers. - Drive optimization of EDB's core support platform and CRM ecosystem, ensuring best-practice utilization across case management, analytics, and customer interaction channels. - Lead regional rollout of global self-service and deflection initiatives, adapting them to EMEA customer and market needs. - Transform EMEA support from a reactive function into a proactive value-creation organization that drives customer loyalty, retention, and expansion. - Collaborate closely with Customer Success, Sales, Product, and Engineering leadership across EMEA and globally to advocate for customer needs and align support with broader business outcomes. - Engage directly with key enterprise accounts during critical escalations, QBRs, and executive briefings to reinforce trust and partnership. - Contribute to regional go-to-market strategies by providing support insights that inform product roadmap priorities and customer health signals. - Build and execute team development plans that grow technical competency, leadership capability, and career progression within the EMEA support organization. - Implement structured coaching, performance management, and recognition programs that motivate and retain top performers. - Lead through change — guiding the team through transformation initiatives with clear communication, empathy, and purpose. - Cultivate an inclusive, diverse, and psychologically safe team environment across geographically distributed locations. Benefits - Access to CuraLinc for health and wellness tips and practices. - Wellness Fridays extending to December 2026.
