About the role
Wenco advances the efficiency and safety of the world’s surface mining equipment through our fleet management systems. As Client Services Manager, North America, you will lead the regional team that supports our clients and delivers our systems and upgrades. This is a leadership role. You will set clear expectations, hold people accountable for results, and build the capability of a distributed team across Canada and the US.

- Lead with safety first: embed safety in every deployment, travel and site decision, and make sure our people go to site prepared
- Own the quality of service delivery across the region, so that clients see high system availability and consistent, reliable support
- Plan and direct resources at least three months ahead, resolve conflicts between projects and support demand, and raise resourcing issues early
- Lead escalations to resolution, and drive root cause fixes with Product, R&D, Supply Chain and Global Services rather than managing symptoms
- Make sound operational decisions, and delegate clear plans, to protect client satisfaction when it matters
- Set the project governance for the region: plans, milestones and deliverables, and visibility of project health
- Partner closely with Sales and Account Management on client support matters, and support the project plans behind RFPs and tenders
- Define custom development requirements with Product Development and Technical Sales
- Review performance through monthly reporting, including Jira case turnover and resource utilization, and act on what the data shows
- Promote a strong, positive team environment, and brief and debrief the team around client visits
What you bring
- 8+ years of technical supervisory experience leading people and resources, with a proven record of building and holding teams accountable
- Mining industry experience and credibility with site and operations leaders
- Strong coaching skills and a track record of developing people into larger roles
- 4+ years of experience with fleet management products, hardware and software
- Experience with remote site installations, upgrades and software support
- Experience managing complex client escalations and high-pressure environments
- Ability to influence and align stakeholders across Sales, Product, R&D, Supply Chain and Global Services
- A computer technology background (for example Linux, Cisco, database administration, business systems analysis, Microsoft Exchange)
- Excellent customer and people management skills, with strong written and verbal communication
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, and the ability to manage priorities across projects and team members
- Bachelor’s degree in any discipline, or equivalent relevant work experience
- Project management certification (PMP, PMI-ACP or equivalent) is an asset
Travel: 10–30%, to client sites in North America and other regions as required.
Base salary of $120,000 - $140,000, commensurate with experience and qualifications.
