Senior Director Customer Experience Overview :

PTC is looking for a dynamic leader to design, build, and grow our Customer Experience and Voice of the Customer (VOC) programs.

This role will directly influence the development of transformation programs based on customer sentiment. You will establish NPS as a tier 1 company objective alongside financial performance metrics (ARR and Free Cash Flow) and improve our ability to listen for, understand, and take action on customer feedback.

We are at the heart of PTC’s strategy interacting daily with C-Suite executives and this capability is a top priority for our CEO, Neil Barua.

The initiatives we derive from our customer experience program will be critical to the growth of the business.

An exceptional candidate will be able to develop a vision for listening, analyzing, and acting on customer sentiment; drive organizational change;

create sustainable processes; leverage software solutions; understand our products and industry; and show a deep empathy for customers.

The success of this program will ultimately tie to impact on our customers in defined metrics (like NPS) and in financial results (ARR, ACV, FCF) realized through transformation initiatives.

You will have to be adept at problem-solving and finding patterns in information sources across the company listening posts while proactively enhancing that capability.

Most importantly, you will need to translate those insights into growth opportunities for the company.
