About the role and team The Global High-Risk Escalations team provides white-glove support for critical escalations across Uber’s global business. We are looking for a Senior Program Leader to lead the strategy and operations of this team while serving as the point person during critical crises.

You’ll oversee Uber’s high-risk customer support issues, focused on social media and executive escalations. You are at the forefront of protecting Uber’s reputation.

• Lead a 50+ person team across Uber’s global network ranging from Program Leaders to high-risk agents
• Oversee the management of five critical teams focused on social media escalations and executive escalations
• Create and inspire AI workflows that enable the proper balance of human intervention and technology
• Optimize root cause processes to create a culture of change that prioritizes driving upstream fixes for the business
• Partner across Global and Regional teams to ensure escalations are resolved with the proper balance of global processes and regional policies
