Our Values

If this sounds like you, you’ll fit right in.

Who You Are

At Justworks, we believe that listening to our customers is one of our greatest strategic advantages. The Voice of Customer (VoC) Program Lead will bring that belief to life by turning feedback into insight, and insight into action.

As the founding leader of our VoC program, you’ll architect the systems, standards, and partnerships needed to scale how we listen to customers across their journey. This role lives within the Research & Insights team and collaborates deeply with CSO, Product, Design, Engineering, Revenue, Support and Marketing to ensure that feedback is coordinated, activated, and accountable across the business.

We’re looking for a systems thinker with a strong bias for collaboration — someone who can rally cross-functional teams around shared goals, clarify complex problems, and lead without formal authority. You’ll need the storytelling skill to make insights resonate and the operational chops to make them matter.

How You Will Do Your Work

You’ll be a good fit if you’re a connector and a translator — able to bridge the gaps between what customers are saying and what internal teams need to hear, and if…

You thrive in environments where ownership is high, structure is emergent , and collaboration is essential

You’re energized by bringing order to ambiguity , and by making complex systems work better for real people — inside and outside the company

You believe that customer insights should shape strategy , not just validate it

Success in this role in year 1 will look like:

A shared, standardized VoC infrastructure and taxonomy in place

Feedback collected at key journey moments with minimal duplication or fatigue

Clear insight-to-action loops tied to strategic priorities, with measurable impact on customer outcomes

Cross-functional teams regularly using VoC data to inform decisions

Greater visibility and accountability for the voice of the customer across the org
