Job Overview:

Genea is scaling, and how we deliver to customers after the sale is becoming a defining competitive advantage. The Director, Security Delivery owns the post-sale experience for our physical security and access control business end to end: the teams that stand customers and partners up, support them, keep them, and grow them. This is a builder’s role for a technical, hands-on leader who has done this work inside a high-growth SaaS company and ideally on the integration-partner side of physical access control.

Today, you will lead Security Support (L1 and L2) and Security Implementations across onshore and offshore delivery. In the near term, you will take ownership of Renewals management and then stand up a true Customer Success function, evolving a forming collection of post-sale teams into an integrated, outcome-driven delivery organization.

You will own a P&L and align to a growth target, running both self-funding services and strategic loss-leaders that drive retention and expansion. If you are energized by maturing a post-sale org, operationalizing delivery with AI, and coaching the next layer of managers, this is an opportunity to shape a function from the ground up.

 

Duties and Responsibilities:

• Own the end-to-end post-sale delivery organization for Genea’s physical security and access control business, including Security Support (L1 and L2) and Security Implementations, with planned expansion into Renewals management and a net-new Customer Success function.

• Lead and mature both onshore and offshore delivery, building the staffing models, partner relationships, and follow-the-sun coverage needed to scale quality and capacity cost-effectively.
• Manage implementation delivery through Genea’s partner / integration channel, holding partners accountable to scope, timeline, quality, and customer-experience standards across engagements ranging from short multi-week installs up to complex multi-month programs.

• Stand up the Renewals function and, subsequently, the Customer Success function: define the charter, segmentation, health-scoring, playbooks, and the renewal and expansion motion in partnership with Sales and Operations.
• Operationalize delivery, reporting, and process with AI — instrumenting the organization with dashboards, forecasting, and AI-enabled workflows that improve throughput, margin visibility, and customer outcomes.
• Define and own the KPIs for the function (utilization, margin, time-to-value, CSAT, gross and net retention, on-time delivery) and report performance and risk to the executive team.
• Coach and develop frontline and emerging managers, strengthening the leadership bench and elevating the team’s capability within the Director’s span of control.
• Lead cross-functionally and through influence — partnering with Sales, Product, Engineering, and broader Operations to enhance the value chain inside and outside the direct reporting line.
