Customer Incident Manager
The role & its impact
When incidents happen, every second counts. You'll be the key orchestrator managing major and minor incidents from the customer's perspective—working across teams to find solutions fast and keep everyone informed. You'll balance immediate crisis response with strategic problem-solving, ensuring customers experience minimal disruption and have clarity on what's happening and why.
You'll own incident management end-to-end: from investigation and impact assessment through to post-incident reviews and recommendations that prevent problems from happening again. You'll build the systems and processes that help teams respond confidently and reduce incidents before they occur, making you instrumental in building customer trust.
