The Asia Technical Services organization is responsible for landing Customer Support priorities including being the local incident commander for large-scale events and high-impact outages, driving in region quality requirements, deliver incident management, and assessing regional support needs. In addition, we deliver on Global Customer Success priorities including landing customer success plays in region, orchestrating the MACC end-to-end experiences, driving usage end-to-end experience and performance, scaling best practices through regional partners, and accelerating Get Well Plans in partnership with CSS.

Microsoft aspires to help our customers achieve their own outcomes through AI / digital transformation, leveraging the power of the Microsoft cloud solutions and services. To help drive this effort, Microsoft has established in the past the Customer Success team and the ISD team that play a key role in helping Microsoft customers achieve this AI / digital transformation through successful adoption of Microsoft Cloud solutions and Services. These two teams were recently brought under the same WW Organization (Customer Experience and Success, CE&S) where Global Customer Success was already reporting. The main purpose of this change is to integrate adjacent capabilities in One Services Portfolio, increase our ability to deliver customer outcomes through a simplified engagement model, and in the process identify cross fertilization opportunities (One Services Opportunities ) through Project based work (delivered by the ISD teams) and Customer Success work, delivered by the CSU teams under the Unified contractual setup.

Following this step of bringing ISD in the same organization as Customer Success, we want to accelerate customer outcomes and growth opportunities through the identification of the key moments that matter during the sales and delivery of our services, whether this is project based services or Unified services. In particular, we will start by focusing on the opportunity to transition from projects to Support for Mission Critical services, to ensure the appropriate level of support for the workloads we contributed to deliver. Over time scenarios for One Services opportunities will be identified and be part of the scope.

We are looking for a talented individual to define and lead this acceleration in the field - where ISD and Customer Success capabilities are deployed through different organizations, and where we need to accelerate the adoption of a One Services mode of operation across these different organizations. As the One Services RBL in Asia, you will contribute to define the key motions, land them in Areas, oversee execution, while partnering with multiple field, regional and WW organizations (Area CSU, Area Services Sales, Regional ISD, WW GCS, WW ISD, WW Services Sales. While the WW teams will be in charge of defining standards to adopt in Areas, the RBL will represent the Asia point of view based on execution and related insights, and provide qualified feedback to WW teams aimed at continuous learning and improvement. For these reasons, the role will entail extensive engagement with field teams to ensure execution excellence, drive the adoption of relevant programs, identify and resolve customer blockers.

The ideal candidate will have Services depth and experience addressing complex customer scenarios in Customer Success, Project Sales and Delivery, Unified Sales and Delivery.
