Do I need to be a golfer? … Not at all. We primarily operate as a travel company, with golf being just one aspect of our offerings. If you’re eager to learn, we’d be thrilled to equip you with all the knowledge you need about our product; however, we can’t promise you’ll become the next Tiger Woods. What we truly seek is a genuine passion for travel and an eagerness to learn.

As Customer Experience Manager, you will be the driving force behind transforming customer feedback into tangible business improvements. Your core responsibility will be to leverage customer insights from reviews, complaints, and Net Promoter Score (NPS) data, to identify areas for enhancement and ensure these insights translate into actions to improve processes and enhance customer satisfaction with Your Golf Travel.

Leveraging your understanding of the travel industry, you will play a key role in developing and executing a data driven strategy to enhance our customer experience that is aligned to our brand values and our commercial goals. You will have a clear view across both qualitative and quantitative feedback, focusing on resolving issues at their root cause and continuously refining our processes to elevate the customer experience.

You will lead a team who support customers when they need us most, acting as a key escalation point and directly managing sensitive issues or escalations. This role is pivotal in surfacing data and analysis that directly supports the design and implementation of end-to-end process improvements resulting from root cause analysis, ensuring adoption across relevant departments.

• Jointly lead and manage our cross functional customer experience working group to provide insight and actionable recommendations to operations, sales and product leadership.

• Act as a final escalation point for complex or highly sensitive customers complaints, ensuring swift resolution.
• Serve as a brand ambassador internally and externally, ensuring consistency and integrity across all customer touchpoints.
