You will run Sidetrade's BPO operation as a living showcase of our Order-to-Cash technology. Your team collects cash for our customers on the same AI platform we sell, powered by our Data Lake and by Aimie, our AI assistant, and proves every day what best-in-class use of that platform looks like. 

This is an entry point into an AI-native software company. If you are operational today and want to move into the technology industry, this role takes you there and opens paths to grow across Customer Experience and beyond. The role sits in Customer Experience, is based in Dublin, works in French and English, and reports to the Chief Customer Experience Officer. 

If you recognise yourself in most of this, we want to hear from you, even if you do not match every point. The best people rarely tick every box, and we would rather meet you than miss you.
