Manager, Customer Excellence

Manager, Customer Excellence

Department: Customer Success

Employment Type: Permanent - Full Time

Location: Remote - Canada

Description

What You'll Do: As the Manager, Customer Excellence, you’ll lead GeologicAI’s global team of Customer Excellence specialists, bringing together technical validation, workflow integration, CoreTable adoption, customer education and data expertise. You’ll develop the team and set its priorities.

The function is still taking shape, so you’ll help define how it works. You’ll establish consistent standards for translating customer needs into technical solutions and value. Early on, that means putting a practical approach in place for request intake, prioritization, technical review and delivery tracking, and turning what the team knows about core scanning into repeatable guidance and training.

What We'll Love About You: You’re a credible mining professional who understands how geological data drives decisions across exploration, mine planning, operations and processing. You don’t need to be a geologist, but you know what sound technical judgment looks like and can earn the respect of experienced specialists. You lead through coaching and clear expectations, and you take ownership of your team’s performance, capacity and development.

You connect work across disciplines and communicate just as effectively with a site geologist as with a customer executive or internal leader. You’re honest about what the data can and can’t support. When work crosses team lines, you partner with the accountable leaders to resolve dependencies before making commitments. You enjoy building structure where it doesn’t exist yet, and you can keep competing priorities moving through a lot of internal and external coordination.
