  • Deploy, implement, monitor, and communicate processes, strategies, and standards to Technical Support teams to ensure global integration.
  • Administer global warranty policies to ensure a high degree of customer satisfaction while maintaining appropriate fiscal responsibility on behalf of JCI.
  • Manage and organize communication cadence with the field organization, transparently communicating KPIs, initiatives, and bringing the voice of the customer into discussions.
  • Provide leadership and direction on product quality issues, minimizing customer impact, managing financial liability for JCI, ensuring robust corrective actions, and keeping senior leadership aware of significant issues.
  • Participate in and lead presales support for HVACR to ensure JCI is positioned to maximize market opportunities with minimal risk and maximum margin potential.
  • Work with regional field teams to evaluate business needs and develop organizations to support current and future HVACR product offerings, including formalized training programs and field deployment of technical experts.
  • Promote team engagement in the product development process to provide the voice of the customer and service during development.
  • Lead the team in customer technical presentations and training, assisting with customer complaint resolution.
  • Plan, organize, staff, and build teams to meet business objectives. Develop employees through personal development plans, goal setting, and timely performance reviews. Develop metrics to ensure proper training and certification of personnel.

What We Look For

  • Experience in both product design/manufacturing and field perspectives.
  • A BS in mechanical engineering or a related engineering field, or 10 years of relevant experience in the HVACR industry.
  • Travel requirement of 10 to 25%.
  • Fluency in Danish and English.
  • Demonstrated team-building experience; familiarity with SharePoint and SAP is an advantage (please note this experience in your application).

What We Offer

  • Attractive salary package, optional benefits program, and health insurance.
  • 10% paid pension.
  • Employment in a growth company with a history of over 130 years.
  • Opportunity to be part of the green, energy-efficient cooling and heat pump industry.
