Location: Philadelphia, PA
Reports to: President – US Operations
About Foodhub
Foodhub is an international hospitality technology company providing online ordering, EPOS, payments, kiosks and digital solutions to hospitality businesses across the Globe, including the UK, Ireland, America, and ANZ.
With our global headquarters in Dublin and our business continuing to grow internationally, we're looking for leaders who enjoy building, taking ownership, and making a real impact
About the Role
We are looking for an experienced Head of Client Services / Director of Client Services to lead and shape Foodhub's client-facing organisation in the United States.
This is a senior leadership role for someone who understands how to build and scale high-performing Client Services, Customer Success, Account Management or Customer Operations teams within a technology business.
You will be responsible for ensuring that our customers receive an exceptional experience throughout their journey with Foodhub — from onboarding and implementation through to adoption, retention, account growth and long-term partnership.
The successful candidate will bring a strong commercial and customer-centric mindset, with the ability to balance customer satisfaction with business growth. You will lead a team of client-facing professionals, establish scalable processes, improve customer retention and identify opportunities to increase customer value through upselling, cross-selling and deeper product adoption.
You will work closely with Sales, Product, Technology, Operations and Support teams to ensure the voice of the customer is represented across the organisation and that client feedback translates into meaningful improvements.
This is an opportunity to join a growing technology business and play a key role in building a world-class client organisation in the US.
Important Industry Requirement
POS/EPOS technology experience is essential for this role.
We are specifically looking for candidates who have worked within a POS, EPOS, payment technology, retail technology, merchant technology or closely related B2B technology company.
The ideal candidate will have experience working for a technology provider delivering software, hardware, payments, POS systems or integrated technology solutions to business customers.
This is not a restaurant operations or hospitality management position. We are not looking for candidates whose primary experience comes from managing restaurants, hotels, food & beverage operations or restaurant groups. We are also not targeting candidates whose experience is primarily within food delivery platforms.
Our focus is on leaders who have worked within the technology/POS provider side of the industry, managing customer-facing teams and relationships.
