Holidu is one of the world's fastest-growing holiday rental technology companies. Our mission is to make booking and hosting holiday homes free of doubt and full of joy, by helping hosts generate more bookings with less work and helping guests find a holiday home they truly enjoy. Our team of 700 colleagues from 60+ nations shares a passion for tech, an ambition for constant improvement, and a relentless drive to bring the best experience to more than 40k holiday rental hosts and 4 million annual guests. Your future team As Head of Customer Service, you'll lead Holidu's Customer Happiness front line from our Málaga office: 3 in-house Team Leads, almost 40 in-house advisors, and 150+ partner advisors. You may initially lead one market team directly while we complete the Team Lead bench. You'll report to the Director of Customer Happiness and work alongside our enablement teams whose job is to equip the front line to succeed. We're at a turning point: we're moving to a new case management platform, rethinking how we measure performance, and redesigning how our teams work together. You'll be one of the people shaping it.
