✨ Role Purpose
As CX Team Lead (Insights Squad), you will give customer data a voice, storytelling in ways that convert intelligence into actionable influence that shapes product direction, strengthens customer trust, and drives operational excellence. You’ll lead the effort to capture, interpret, and act on customer feedback, translating lived experience into insights that guide tactical execution and support strategic direction. This will improve both how we serve customers and build for them.
Working closely with our Data and Analytics team, you’ll bridge the gap between data and decision-making, communicating with clarity, and commercial credibility. Your role is to ensure that every insight shared with the business is accurate, timely, contextual and impactful, building confidence across leadership and helping the company act fast on what matters most to our customers.
You’ll lead, coach, and develop a team of 5–10 agents and specialists, balancing operational execution with people development. This role requires a hands-on leader, who obsesses about learning and demonstrating product knowledge through working tickets and guiding teams. You will need to be able to act decisively, sometimes with limited information, while aligning business goals with team priorities in a way that inspires collective ownership. At the same time, you’ll embed content creation as a cornerstone of team growth, building individual and collective capability, fostering a high-performance culture, and continuously raising the bar for what’s possible.
🔑 What you’ll be doing
- Give our customers a voice, surfacing insights that inform CX workforce management and day to day prioritisation, as well as strategic initiatives
- Partner with Data & Analytics to validate data integrity, management information and frame findings with a clear customer value and business narrative
- Translate customer signals, from social platforms (e.g. Trustpilot) and support queues, into actionable improvements that build trust and reduce preventable friction
- Guide CX queue management and prioritisation, applying analytical reasoning to balance service efficiency with delightful customer outcomes
- Maintain extreme attention to detail ensuring all insights, dashboards and reports are accurate, consistent, and credible at executive level
- Contribute to CX roadmapping, department strategy, and management reporting, connecting insight generation with business goals and measurable outcomes
- Partner with the Build Squad to ensure insight loops inform dynamic content updates and that learnings from customer experiences shape CX team training and long term product iteration
- Set clear goals and ensure delivery against KPIs (e.g. solves, CSAT, reopen rates, response times)
- Deliver daily coaching and feedback, embedding data literacy and insights as the foundation of guiding good decision making
- Create a motivating team environment where individuals feel accountable, supported, and engaged
- Resolve escalations and complex cases, guiding your team with good judgment and customer empathy
- Spot issues early, act with urgency and turn challenges into opportunities for improvement
- Align team objectives to broader business goals, framing decisions clearly and ensuring understanding across the team
💡 What you’ll bring
- 3-5 years proven experience leading CX teams of 5–10 in office-first environments, across both live and non-live support channels with experience in payment services highly valued
- Experience writing and validating SQL queries

- Proficient in BI tools (e.g. Looker, BigQuery, Tableau, or similar) to extract, validate, and interpret customer and operational data
- Comfortable partnering with Product, Data, and Engineering to optimise CX tooling, automation, and insight feedback loops
- Demonstrable experience using data-driven insights to influence strategy, product and operational improvements
- Credibility working with Data and Analytics teams, with the ability to speak both technical and commercial languages
- Exceptional analytical judgement and attention to detail - your work earns trust through accuracy and clarity
- Strong storytelling and communication skills, which enable you to turn complex findings into clear narratives that inspire action
- Thoughtful critic who is able to make trade-offs between experience, efficiency, financial and operational impact when managing priorities
- A coaching leadership style: you see data, content, feedback, and training as core enablers of performance
- Experience with workforce management, including scheduling and capacity planning
- High EQ and resilience - you thrive in fast-moving, often ambiguous environments while maintaining focus and calm, under pressure
