About the Role:

As Manager, Digital Customer Experience International, you will support in leading the vision, strategy, and execution of digitally led customer journeys that span from mobile interaction to on-location service delivery. This role is critical to transforming the customer rental experience into one that is fast, intuitive, mobile-first, and commercially optimized.

You will oversee how digital channels guide and shape the entire customer lifecycle — from booking and digital check-in to counter bypass, vehicle pickup, and return. You will work cross-functionally to ensure that each digital touchpoint not only works seamlessly but also drives operational alignment and commercial impact in the physical environment.

You will collaborate with Product, IT, Operations, Marketing, and Care to ensure a consistent, data-driven, and scalable experience that meets customer expectations while increasing efficiency and revenue

Key Duties and Responsibilities:

• Own and continuously optimize the digital customer journey, including mobile booking flows, digital check-in, counter bypass, vehicle selection, and communications across email, SMS, and app.
• Ensure digital-first experiences lead the customer journey, reducing time at the counter and empowering self-service wherever possible.
• Identify and activate commercial opportunities within digital touchpoints, including upsell and cross-sell moments for services such as vehicle upgrades, insurance, fuel plans, or add-ons — particularly during booking and pre-arrival.
• Collaborate with Retail Experience to ensure branch operations, signage, and staff interactions consistently deliver on the expectations set by digital experiences, including readiness to support counter bypass customers.
• Champion the rollout of features and experiences that enable frictionless, time-saving service, such as express pick-up, queue-less experiences, and digital identity verification.
• Translate customer pain points and insights into prioritized digital improvements that can scale across regions and branches.
• Partner with product, UX, and IT teams to develop, test, and launch seamless digital solutions that bridge online and in-person moments.
• Lead performance tracking of the full customer journey using KPIs such as digital adoption, check-in completion, counter bypass success rates, CSAT, NPS, and ancillary revenue conversion.
• Support pilots and rollouts of innovative technologies that connect digital and physical experiences (e.g., mobile-based car access, smart returns, or geo-notifications).
• Stay ahead of trends in digital travel, mobility, and retail experience to inform long-term journey design.
