The role
This is a key Customer Operations leadership role responsible for leading the day-to-day delivery and continuous improvement of Tredz' end-to-end customer experience.
Leading the Customer Service, Bike Expert and Aftersales teams, you’ll ensure customers receive a seamless, efficient and high-quality experience at every stage of their journey with us. While each function has its own objectives, your role is to bring them together under a single customer-focused operating model, driving consistency, building customer confidence and supporting commercial success.
Reporting to the Customer Experience (CX) Manager, you will own the day-to-day operation of these customer-facing functions, creating a well-controlled and high-performing operation. You’ll translate strategic priorities into clear operational plans, ensuring teams, processes and resources are aligned to deliver outstanding customer outcomes and help establish Tredz as a market leader for customer experience.

You bring a disciplined approach to execution, ensuring clear actions, strong accountability, and consistent standards across the teams. You’ll ensure resources, processes, and capabilities are aligned to meet customer demand while balancing operational efficiency, employee wellbeing, and service excellence. A significant focus of the role is aftersales, where customer trust and long-term brand perception are often shaped. Working closely with suppliers, manufacturers, and internal stakeholders, you will drive effective resolutions, reduce customer effort, improve turnaround times, and ensure commercially sound decision making.
You will use data and Voice of Customer insight to understand performance and trends, identifying risks and improvement opportunities. Working closely with CX Manager, you will analyse customer feedback, including NPS, satisfaction and review sentiment, feeding insight back into the wider business to reduce repeat issues at source.
You’re supported by strong product and bike expertise across Tredz, which allows you to focus on leadership, coordination and performance.
Success in this role means delivering a consistently high-quality support experience, driving customer advocacy, strengthening customer confidence, and improving NPS, customer satisfaction, recommendation rates, and review sentiment.
