Head of Customer Support

Full-time

About Vay

We're rewriting the rules of urban mobility. At Vay, customers tap a button and a car arrives — with no one inside — powered by our world-first Remote Driving technology on real public streets. We're live in Las Vegas and scaling fast, powered by a strategic investment of up to $410 million from Grab.

About The Role

Customer Support at Vay is not a call center. It's a core operational function and the voice of the customer inside the business. As Head of Customer Support, you'll own the end-to-end customer support experience, from frontline delivery and claims handling to automation, tooling, and feedback loops into Product and Operations.

What You'll Be Driving

Team Leadership & Development

  • Lead, coach, and develop Customer Support Agents and the Claims Associate

  • Build a high-performance, customer-centric culture with clear standards and accountability

  • Own hiring, onboarding, training, and ongoing capability development

Customer Support Operations

  • Ensure fast, empathetic, and professional handling of all inbound support (phone, chat, email, social)

  • Own SLA performance and act as the escalation point for complex or high-risk cases

  • Balance human support with automation and self-service to drive efficiency

Automation & Tool Ownership

  • Own the customer support tech stack (e.g. Zendesk, Intercom, Salesforce)

  • Lead automation initiatives: macros, bots, self-service portals, AI-assisted support

  • Continuously improve tooling, reporting, and workflows to support scale

Performance Monitoring & Reporting

  • Own reporting across CSAT, NPS, SLA adherence, resolution times, claims outcomes, and agent productivity

  • Track the impact of automation and self-service on volume and efficiency

  • Share Voice of the Customer insights clearly and regularly with Product, Ops, and Leadership

What We're Looking For

  • Proven experience leading a customer support function in a scaling, high-complexity environment

  • Strong people leader with a track record of building high-performing frontline teams

  • Hands-on experience owning support tooling and driving automation and self-service

  • Data-driven mindset — able to turn messy customer signals into clear insights and actions

  • Calm under pressure, sound judgment, and high standards for fairness and consistency
