Customer Operations Manager
- Experience: Management
- Contract: Permanent contract
- Location: Aalst or Mechelen, Belgium
We’re Bluecrux. Pleased to meet you!
Founded in 2011, Bluecrux is a value chain consulting and technology company. Our experts and software solutions help to transform today’s supply chains into smart, efficient, and fully integrated value chains. We believe that only true collaboration leads to innovation, by converging at the intersection of our knowledge and our customers’ ambition and linking expertise with technology and problems with solutions.
We’re a community, a movement that’s built at this intersection, which we call “the Cutting X”: it’s where supply chains evolve and value chains are forged. Our client portfolio includes some of the world’s largest companies, including Johnson & Johnson, GSK, Roche, Bridgestone, AkzoNobel, Beiersdorf, Oatly, and many more. Our desire to work closely with them is also reflected in our global presence, with offices both in Europe and the US.
Our international SaaS scale-up product Binocs digitally schedules and plans QC laboratories and Cell Gene Therapy production facilities with an AI scheduling co-bot, “what-if” based scenario planning, actionable analytics and zero-code integrations. To support our expansion, we are currently on the lookout for a Customer Operations Manager to join the Binocs team in Belgium.
Your role
As a Saas Customer Success Lead, your mission is to establish sustainable value for the customers in your portfolio. This role drives our team’s success in two ways: on the one hand you oversee the implementations of Binocs in your portfolio. On the other hand you build a long-term successful collaboration with your customers after the go-live. Sounds like what you would like to do ? read on !

Once on cruising speed, the role is a combination of implementation, customer success management and managerial aspects:
- Lead projects following our implementation methodology and steer planning, budget, scope and risk management.
- Drive the configuration of Binocs for your customer’s environment. This entails hosting customer workshops to thoroughly understand their way of working, brainstorming with your colleagues of the Solution team on potential Binocs designs, and hands-on building those designs in Binocs.
- Understand client needs, uncover the business processes of laboratories and collaborate with a large variety of stakeholders to estimate, plan and implement suitable, business-savvy solutions.
- After the go-live, ensure adoption, effective usage and strategic collaboration. In doing so, you drive the subscription renewal process and identify strategic collaboration opportunities.
- Build a small team of colleagues (implementation and CSM)
