When a veterinarian and a software engineer couldn't find the perfect food for their own dogs, they decided to make it. Dr. Tory Waxman, Michael Waxman, Mabel and Sky started Sundays from their garage, launched in 2020, and now feed a growing community of thousands of dogs.
Our human-grade, air-dried food is healthier than kibble, but easier than home-cooked or refrigerated foods. Our team is working to make being a pet parent even easier and making more time to play! Sundays is reinventing food for the modern dog family.
Sundays for Dogs is a venture backed direct-to-consumer brand with the goal to make life easier on the modern dog parent so that they may spend more quality time with their dog.
We enable dog parents to not have to choose between quality and convenience when seeking the world’s best dog food. We are a team dedicated to the mission and consider ourselves skydivers, not plane passengers. We decide fast, fail fast and learn fast.
The Team & Role
We are seeking an experienced and passionate Customer Care Manager to lead a team of customer care associates in delivering best-in-class service to our customers. This role is primarily focused on coaching, mentoring, and performance management, ensuring the team meets and exceeds departmental KPIs while fostering a positive and customer-centric culture.
As a senior leader in the Customer Care department, your success is defined not only by individual efforts and performance, but also by the team’s success. This is a growing team and department - we’re looking for someone who is excited to help us strategize and grow the Customer Care function here at Sundays!
This role reports to our Director of Customer Care and leads a team of 10–15 associates. While our headquarters is in Cleveland and we prefer candidates based there, we’re also open to those in nearby states (OH, PA, IN, or MI) for easier travel. The role requires travel to Cleveland about once per quarter.
