We are seeking a Head of Customer Care to lead our customer care efforts and shape strategy across the breadth of our customer care org. This is a key role within the organization in which you’ll be responsible for shaping HoneyBook’s customer care vision and ensuring alignment with overall business objectives. You’ll focus on developing long-term strategies that drive customer satisfaction, retention, and growth. Reporting directly to our Chief Product Officer, you will partner with cross-functional teams to advocate for our customers and influence product and service enhancements. The initial scope of this role will encompass customer support, customer voice, and customer success, with the potential to expand leadership responsibilities to include additional teams as part of a broader customer care strategy.

This role is hybrid to our SF office, 2-3 days per week (current expectation is Wednesdays and Thursdays in-office).
