Sales / Customer Service

What you will do

Customer Support Manager – lead a cross-border B2B team

Are you ready to manage a team of 11 customer support representatives split between the Nordics and UK with all the cultural diversity that entails? And can you set their direction through harmonization and digitalization in an international group that has never been more closeknit?

“The timing is fantastic – we’ve gone through the rough part of our transition into a more unified setup,
so now the fun begins with building something new. And in this process, you can really leave your mark,”
says Head of Operations Lynne Nordby.
Lead a dedicated team with a broad B2B customer segment

You have probably used our products to hang something on your wall at home. But did you know that our world-leading adhesive solutions are used in manufacturing anything from cars to windows? This means that your new team – 4 in Denmark, 1 in Norway, 1 in Finland and 5 in the UK – supports a broad variety of B2B clients.

For the past 2 years, we have made good headway when it comes to optimizing and aligning our processes as well as upgrading our IT setup. But we are still only halfway there and look forward for you to lead the team through the rest of the process.

You get the best out of our people, processes and systems, as you:

Ensure that the team meet their KPI’s for the order to fulfillment cycle, troubleshooting, after sales ect.

Analyze root and recurring causes for claims and product returns

Continue our ongoing harmonization and digitalization efforts and keep the team updated through relevant trainings by regional experts

Maintain close and fruitful relationships with Sales, Supply Chain, Finance and other internal stakeholders

Participate in our community of the 9 European Customer Support Managers by going over concerns and sharing best practice

We expect you to travel to UK about 24 days a year and trust you to plan the duration and timing of each stay as you see fit.

What you will need

Experienced manager with cultural awareness

You know the ins and outs of managing a team of people who take pride in providing the best possible service experience. And you can easily see yourself navigating in an intercultural environment where people will communicate differently than what you are used to.

We also imagine that you:

Have some years of management experience within customer support or operations – experience with supply chain is an advantage

Have the analytical skillset needed to prepare business cases, optimize processes and navigate in a matrix organization

Have solid SAP proficiency, know your way around CRM-systems (we use Microsoft Dynamics) and have a digital mindset

Speak and write English and one Scandinavian language on a professional level

Come for the job, stay for the colleagues

You will work from our office in Allerød with international colleagues from Denmark, Sweden, Germany, UK, and even Thailand. We value our social cohesion, and we all make sure to work at the office at least 3 days a week.

And with our lovely canteen, workout facilities and amble parking space, there is plenty to come for – not to mention our supportive atmosphere.

“Even if people are not in the same department, they take proactive steps to help each other out.
This holds true for all of tesa and is something I haven’t experienced like this anywhere else,”
says Anne Marie Kaysfeld, HR Manager Cluster North.
