Stakeholders know what to expect and when. + At 12 months: Identifying trends across escalations, improving workflows, and strengthening cross-functional processes so escalations resolve faster and with less friction. + At 18 months: Helping scale the escalation management function-improving reporting, reducing repeat issues through operational improvements, and contributing to a more proactive support posture. **Your team will:** The Global Customer Support team is responsible for resolving complex, post-sales technical issues for LiveRamp's enterprise customers and partners worldwide.
