At Dropbox, we believe support should feel effortless. Getting help should be fast, intuitive, and even delightful — not a ticket into a black hole. We’re looking for a Global IT Service Operations Manager to reimagine and elevate the end-to-end support experience for every Dropboxer, shaping how support feels across the company — from AI-powered self-service to frontline helpdesk, from seamless Day-1 hardware readiness to high-touch executive support.
This role owns the full frontline support ecosystem, including our managed Tier 1 helpdesk partner, physical asset operations, executive support, and our AI-powered support experience. You will modernize and unify these services into a cohesive, AI-first, automation-driven model that reduces friction and builds trust, ensuring Dropboxers get the right help, at the right time, through the right channel — without confusion, delay, or unnecessary escalation.
Success in this role means executives feel fully supported, new hires are productive on Day 1, and support becomes a strategic advantage rather than a reactive function. This is a high-impact leadership opportunity to define what “world-class IT support” looks like in a Virtual First company — and to make every interaction count.
