Help shape the future of AI-powered workflow automation!

We're building Harold, an innovative platform designed to help organisations streamline complex workflows and unlock the value of their data. As we continue to grow, we're looking for an ambitious and proactive Product & Customer Success Executive who wants to play a key role in helping customers succeed while influencing the future direction of our product.

This is a unique opportunity to sit at the centre of our business, working directly with customers, product, and engineering teams.

You'll be responsible for helping customers get up and running with Harold as quickly and successfully as possible. From onboarding new clients and gathering user feedback to supporting integrations and testing new features, you'll become an expert in both our product and our customers' needs.

This role is perfect for someone who enjoys wearing multiple hats, taking ownership, and working directly with senior leadership to influence product decisions. No two days will be the same.

• Ensure product releases deliver a smooth customer experience.

Technical Implementation & Integrations:

• Work alongside our CTO on product enhancements and technical projects.

• Support integrations with customer systems and third-party platforms.

• Assist with API implementations, workflow configuration, and data mapping.

• Help customers maximise the value they get from Harold's capabilities.

Who we're looking for:

We're less interested in years of experience and more interested in mindset.

• Highly organised and self-motivated.

• Comfortable speaking with customers and senior stakeholders.

• Naturally curious and enthusiastic about technology.

• A strong problem-solver who enjoys figuring things out.

• Product Operations.

• Business Analysis.

• SaaS Implementation.

Most importantly, we're looking for someone who is smart, driven, adaptable, and excited about building something great.
