Head of Customer Support

**About Women's Best
**Women’s Best was founded in 2015, and has grown to be loved by 4m+ female fans and customers across 150 countries, who use their high quality sports nutrition and apparel.
Women's Best sell across a number of sales channels, both 1st and 3rd party eCommerce, retail, wholesale and marketplaces globally, with the UK, USA & EU being key markets for them to grow awareness and market share.
Today, the business is run exclusively from Innsbruck, Austria where the co-founders lead a team of 100+ people. Finding the volume of experienced talent they need to continue their growth has been difficult therefore they recently opened a London HQ whichwill house the majority of the commercial and demand creation functions going forwards, leaving the Innsbruck HQ to manage the majority of the back office administration.
In parallel, Women's Best are creating a new operational board to work closely with our Co-Founders allowing them to move away from day-to-day trading activity to focus more on the business’ 3-5 year plan, where we believe revenues of €500m are achievable.
