What Makes Cloudbeds Unique

At Cloudbeds, we’re not just building software, we’re transforming hospitality. Our platform powers hotels across 150 countries, processing billions in bookings annually. From boutique properties to large hotel groups, we help hoteliers transform operations and uplevel their commercial strategy through a unified platform that integrates with hundreds of partners. And we do it with a completely remote team. Imagine working alongside global innovators to build AI-powered solutions that solve hoteliers’ biggest challenges. Since our founding in 2012, we’ve continually been recognized for excellence, most recently earning top honors at the 2026 HotelTechAwards for Best Hotel Management Software and landing on Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500 again, but we’re just getting started.

How You’ll Make an Impact:

As the Head of Global Customer Support, you will lead our global support organization and own the experience hoteliers have when they need us most. This is a builder’s role at a pivotal moment. We are transforming reactive support into proactive partnership, combining AI at scale with the empathy of true hospitality. You will be accountable for the health of the queue, the quality of every answer, and the wellbeing of the people who deliver it — raising first contact resolution and driving down resolution times while keeping the customer experience human. You’ll bring the operating discipline of a large-scale contact center (workforce planning, queue health, quality, and data) and pair it with an AI platform that already touches nearly every ticket we receive.

Our Customer Support Team:

Forget the stuffy corporate office. We are a completely remote global team of innovators and hospitality experts. The support organization spans roughly 130 coaches and advanced support specialists across LATAM, EMEA, and APAC, organized into teams led by experienced leads and senior leads. We are our clients’ secret weapon and trusted advisor, and we are rebuilding how support works from the ground up.

What You Bring to the Team:

  • Built and scaled high-volume contact center or support operations across phone, chat, email, and messaging
  • Led large support organizations serving both SMB and mid-market/enterprise customers, with different service models for each
  • Ran multi-region, multi-time-zone, fully remote teams with full accountability for first contact resolution, response and resolution times, CSAT, and retention
  • Supported a complex operational software product (ERP, PMS, POS, payments, or similar) where downtime costs the customer real money
  • Deployed AI and automation at scale in a support operation, with strong instincts for where it helps the customer and where it gets in the way
  • Lead other leaders with empathy and accountability, and rebuild team health after periods of high pressure
  • Run the operation on data: you know your numbers, find root causes, and prove a fix before scaling it

What Sets You Up for Success:

  • 8+ years in customer support or service, including at least 4 years leading teams with experience leading other leaders
  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in hospitality, business, or technology
  • Experience scaling a high-volume support function through significant change or transformation
  • Excellent crisis management and escalation handling with confident cross-functional alignment across Product, Onboarding, and Account Management
  • A bias toward fixing root causes — you challenge process that creates unnecessary work and prove a fix by hand before automating it
  • Experience leading distributed teams across multiple regions, languages, and cultures
  • Hands-on experience with workforce management, capacity planning, and QA programs in a contact center environment

Bonus Skills to Stand Out :

  • Senior leadership experience managing managers across multiple regions
  • Advanced degree in Hospitality or Business
  • Experience standing up a customer recovery or save motion for at-risk accounts
  • Hospitality or hospitality-technology experience (property operations, distribution, PMS)

Compensation: Depending on your skills and experience, you can expect your annual compensation to be between $160,000 and $220,000 USD. Please note that we maintain high flexibility, and packages above this range will be considered. (The salary is only for US-based candidates).

Work Authorization: Please note that applicants must be currently authorized to work in the location where the position is located without requiring visa sponsorship. At this time, Cloudbeds is unable to provide sponsorship for work visas.

Sample interview questions
How would you diagnose and improve declining first-contact resolution across a global support organization?

I would segment FCR by channel, issue type, product area, customer segment, language, and team to identify the largest drivers. I would pair ticket and QA data with frontline listening, validate root causes through small pilots, and then scale changes such as knowledge improvements, routing changes, product fixes, coaching, or carefully scoped automation.

Describe your approach to introducing AI into customer support without reducing customer trust.

I start with customer intent and risk rather than automating for volume alone. AI should handle repeatable, low-risk work, improve agent context, and surface knowledge, while clear escalation paths preserve access to skilled human support for complex, sensitive, or high-impact issues. I monitor containment, reopen rates, CSAT, quality results, and escalation patterns before expanding deployment.

How do you lead managers across regions and time zones while maintaining accountability and team health?

I establish a shared operating cadence with clear service metrics, decision rights, and escalation mechanisms, while allowing regional leaders to adapt execution to local customers and teams. Regular one-to-ones, leadership forums, calibration sessions, and transparent dashboards help maintain alignment; I also monitor workload and attrition signals so performance expectations remain sustainable.

What would your first 90 days in this role look like?

I would first build trust with support leaders and frontline teams, assess customer pain points, review performance data, and map the end-to-end support journey. Next, I would prioritize a small number of measurable interventions for queue health, quality, staffing, and top contact drivers. By the end of 90 days, I would align stakeholders on an operating plan with owners, milestones, customer-impact metrics, and an AI roadmap grounded in validated use cases.

Tell us about a time you handled a major customer-support crisis involving a complex operational product.

I would explain the incident structure: establish a cross-functional command group, communicate transparent customer updates, prioritize cases by business impact, and provide teams with consistent guidance. After stabilization, I would lead a blameless root-cause review, quantify the operational and customer impact, implement corrective actions, and verify that the fix prevents recurrence.
