ZEEKR is a premium electric vehicle and technology solutions brand from Geely Holding Group, China’s largest privately held automotive company. The ZEEKR brand and its first car, the 001, were unveiled at a brand night prior to Shanghai Auto Show in April 2021. What ZEEKR pursues is to co-create the highest enjoyment for the travel experience of its users. As a global company, ZEEKR employs over 10,000 members of staff, covering China, Europe, North America and other places.

Hand on heart – aren’t you a bit bored with your current, mundane job and yearn for a little more flair and pizzazz? Wouldn’t it be awesome to be part of launching a new premium mobility brand in Europe? If, like us, you thrive in an innovative and fast environment and love to get your hands – but not your car! – dirty, ZEEKR might just be the place for you.

This is a unique opportunity for you to join us at ZEEKR as Service Network Development Manager and become a part of a hands-on, dynamic and innovative culture. 
As Service Network Development Manager you will work closely with the Customer Care management team members, as well as the department colleagues.
You will interact with many areas in the ZEEKR organization, as well as external partners. To be a part of our team, you need to carry strong leadership skills, be very flexible, and always ask yourself how you can contribute to the department’s goals and challenges. You will be a part of an open-minded and supportive team, where we together create and develop for success! We are striving to have a flat and flexible organization, where everyone can, and will, make an impact.

This is what you will do most of the time:

• Responsible for developing and rolling out ground-breaking and innovative solutions for a hybrid workshop network across ZEEKR EU markets.
• Engage with suitable workshop partners and deliver effective relationships to increase our After sales capacity in line with our European sales growth.
• Manage performance of workshop partners for both commercial and customer satisfaction measures, taking appropriate actions where performance is below our high standards.
• Provide EU markets with relevant pan-European standards to ensure high standards and consistency of approach across workshops and other hybrid repair solutions.
• Facilitate effective solutions on all key workshop necessities – eg parts, tooling & equipment, technical knowledge, training and warranty requirements – by liaising with appropriate ZEEKR Customer Care department colleagues.
• Coordinate the effective roll out and management of technical and non-technical training across ZEEKR EU workshops.

You have probably done something like this:

• Most likely with a background in franchising or partner development.
• A technical background in a transport-related service role is desirable.
• Experience in a consumer-focused background is desirable.
• An interest in digital programs and solutions in either automotive or a comparable industry.
• Experience of working in roles that utilize strong analytical skills and a data first approach.

• Effective managerial experience.
  
  To thrive at ZEEKR we believe that you have the courage to take initiative with trust and care and you don’t mind getting your hands dirty. You are highly innovative and have a great ability to adapt and perform in a constantly changing, fast-paced, highly demanding work environment. Like us, you believe it’s important to have a passion to work in an international and multicultural environment with the desire and ability to embrace the diversity of people, perspectives, and styles.
