You should have a true entrepreneurial spirit, be energized by building things that don't exist yet, and be genuinely obsessed with the experience our customers have when they need help. Support is where laundromat and dry-cleaning operators feel whether Cents is a partner or just a vendor — and this role owns that moment end to end. As we scale across both Cents and LaundroWorks, we are investing in support as a differentiator, not a cost center, and we're looking for a senior leader to build a world-class service experience from the ground up.
As Director of Support, you will lead every support function in the business: Software Support, Install Support, Hardware Support, and a brand-new Distributor Support function you'll stand up from scratch. You'll lead four managers and the teams beneath them, including an offshore team, and you'll own the full picture — strategy, structure, staffing, coverage hours, tooling, budget, and every metric that measures support performance. Distributors are central to our growth, and building a focused, deliberate support experience for that channel across both Cents and LaundroWorks is one of your earliest and most visible mandates.
You are a strategic leader who will set the long-term vision and own the budget and the roadmap, but you'll also know what's sitting in the queue this morning, what broke on last week's install, and which operator is frustrated and why. You're comfortable leading both software and hardware support, you can build process and structure without smothering a fast-moving team, and you hold an extremely high bar for what customers should experience. You must be relationship-oriented, collaborative, data-driven, and constantly looking for the next thing to improve. Above all else, you are a leader who can get the most out of a team of direct report leaders and those who work for them by developing them into stronger leaders themselves — setting a clear standard, coaching in the moment, giving your managers real ownership of their functions, and holding them accountable to outcomes they helped define. We are looking for a leader of people first, not simply an executor of deliverables. The clearest signal you can give us is a track record of managers who grew under you.
We're a hybrid team that works together in our NYC office three days a week. Our in-office anchor days are Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday, when you'll find the broader team collaborating, meeting, and connecting in person. Tuesdays and Fridays are remote, giving you dedicated time for focused work while still maintaining the flexibility of a hybrid schedule.Own the end-to-end support experience across Cents and LaundroWorks — define what world-class service looks like for our operators and hold the organization to that standard
