Client Service Director, West

The Client Service Director is an outcomes-driven people leader responsible for the performance, consistency, and scalability of the Client Service function. This role leads and develops Client Service Managers (CSMs) and Client Service Associates (CSAs), owns team-level service outcomes, and ensures a high-quality, predictable experience for clients, retirees, and members. The Director primarily leads the system: setting expectations, executing and refining service strategies co-developed with the VP of Client Services, and stepping into client relationships for escalations, high-touch situations, and critical moments that require senior ownership. The Director may also carry a small, strategically selected client portfolio when appropriate, without diminishing their primary accountability for team-level outcomes.
