Senior Manager, Customer Operations
ChargeLab
Operations, Customer Service
Etobicoke, Toronto, ON, Canada
Posted on Mar 13, 2026
Role overview
ChargeLab has built a strong foundation in driver support and customer care. As our network, hardware footprint, and deployment volume have grown, so has the complexity of our customer operations. Today, we support two interconnected customer groups: drivers, who rely on fast, empathetic 24/7 support, and site hosts & resellers, who depend on smooth deployments, stable charger performance, and timely resolution of technical and hardware issues.
As the Senior Manager, Customer Operations, you will bring Customer Support and Deployments & Hardware Operations together under one clear structure. You’ll create alignment, improve accountability, and ensure our systems and processes scale with the business. You will own how customers experience ChargeLab after the sale — from deployment through ongoing support — and make sure we consistently deliver a reliable, high-quality experience.
This is a key role in our next stage of growth. You’ll build on what’s already working, strengthen what isn’t, and help shape how we scale going forward.
This role reports to the VP of Product & Operations.
