Repair Experience Manager
Location: Christchurch
Employment Type: Full time
Department: Operations
Partly’s mission is to connect the world’s parts and we’re building the first global platform for replacement parts, starting with auto parts. Our vision is to accelerate the world toward a sustainable future where waste is eliminated and all replacement parts are universally searchable, accessible and available to all.
Founded by ex‑Rocket Lab engineers, we utilize cutting‑edge technology to solve challenging but exciting problems that make a huge impact in a $1.9 trillion industry. We have more than tripled our team over the last 12 months and expect to double in size again over the coming 12 months. We are a global team spanning both Europe and Australasia.
This role supports collision repairers as they adopt and use Partly. Reporting to the Customer Success Director, you will own repairer onboarding end‑to‑end and provide flexible support across all customer types – bridging the gap between what customers experience on the ground and how Partly continuously improves its products. It is a hands‑on, office‑based role with time in the field, combining onboarding, customer support, insight gathering and enablement.
What will you do
* Onboard Repairers by owning the end‑to‑end onboarding experience for collision repairers – from same‑day activation through to first value and post‑onboarding check‑ins. Help repairers get up and running quickly and confidently with Partly products.
* Support Across Customer Types by providing flexible, day‑to‑day support across repairers, suppliers, and dismantlers via phone, email, and onsite visits. Help customers troubleshoot issues and get the most out of Partly products, regardless of which segment they sit in.
* Surface and Communicate Feedback by capturing customer experience insights and working closely with Product and Engineering teams to share what’s working, what isn’t, and where opportunities exist.
* Collaborate Across Teams by working alongside Account Managers as the support and enablement layer across all accounts. Ensure a consistent customer experience, even where you don’t directly own the commercial relationship.
* Contribute to Self‑Service Resources by improving documentation, help centre articles, onboarding guides, and internal playbooks to reduce friction and scale support across all customer types.
* Spot Patterns and Share Insights by monitoring engagement trends and behaviours across repairers, suppliers, and dismantlers. Share insights with internal teams to help shape the product roadmap and improve the overall customer experience.
