Job description

JELD-WEN is currently seeking a Customer Advocate & Operations Liaison to join our growing team.
The Role
The Customer Advocate & Operations Liaison serves as the single point of ownership for customer-impacting issues at the plant level. This role bridges Plan Operations, Customer Service, and Sales to proactively manage escalations, backorders, and interplant coordination in a consistent and transparent manner. This position is designed to bring clear ownership, interface clarity, and system discipline to how customer issues are managed - reducing fragmentation, improving consistency in customer communication, and minimizing operational disruption within the plant.
Key Responsibilities

  • Own plant-level customer escalations end-to-end, serving as the single point of accountability for resolving customer-impacting issues related to delays, backorders, production constraints, and downtime.
  • Establish clear ownership, interface clarity, and disciplined system use to ensure consistent handling of escalations and backorders across Plant Operations, Customer Service, and Sales.
  • Act as the customer advocate within plant operations, representing customer impact in prioritization, decision-making, and cross-functional discussions.
  • Ensure consistent, accurate documentation and visibility of issues through Salesforce and ERP systems, reinforcing standard processes and eliminating ad hoc tracking methods.
  • Drive continuous improvement by analyzing escalation trends and root causes and providing data-driven insights to leadership to reduce recurring issues and improve operational effectiveness.
What does a typical day in this role look like?
  • Reviewing Salesforce cases and ERP data to identify aging issues, at-risk orders, or emerging customer impacts requiring attention.
  • Triage and coordinate resolution of new and ongoing escalations by partnering with schedulers, plant leaders, Customer Service, Sales, and automation teams.
  • Participating in daily plant or attainment meetings and relevant production or scheduling reviews to align on priorities, constraints, and customer commitments.
  • Communicating resolution paths, updates, and timelines back to Customer Service and Sales to support consistent customer messaging.
  • Supporting interplant order transfers by ensuring proper documentation, SOP adherence, and coordination across facilities.
  • Tracking recurring issues and patterns to identify opportunities for process improvement and more predictable outcomes.
  • Work Environment: Will be working between the front office and the production floor
  • Safety and Quality Responsibilities: Must wear appropriate PPE when in the plant environment
Key Competencies
  • Takes clear responsibility for customer-impacting issues end-to-end, follows through on commitments, and ensures issues are driven to resolution without hand-offs or ambiguity.
  • Understands how operational decisions affect customers and consistently represents customer impact in plant-level prioritization and decision-making.
  • Effectively partners with Plant Operations, Customer Service, Sales, and Scheduling to align priorities and drive outcomes without direct authority.
  • Quickly assesses production constraints, backorders, and escalations to identify realistic resolution paths and practical solutions in a dynamic environment.
  • Demonstrates strong discipline in system usage (Salesforce, ERP), values accurate documentation, and reinforces standard processes over workarounds.
  • Translates operational complexity into clear, timely, and consistent communication for both internal partners and customer-facing teams.
  • Anticipates emerging issues, identifies at-risk orders early, and takes action to mitigate customer impact before escalation.
  • Analyzes escalation trends and root causes, identifies process gaps, and recommends improvements that reduce repeat issues and operational noise.
Required Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree and 2-3 years of experience in customer service, operations, supply chain, or manufacturing support role, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • Strong understanding of order management, backorders, and lead-time dependencies
  • Experience working cross-functionally with Plant, Customer Service, and Sales teams
  • Proficiency with Salesforce and ERP systems (Titan preferred)
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Proven ability to manage multiple priorities and drive issues to resolution
  • Physical Requirements: lifting should be limited to 50 lbs.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Preferred experience with JW product (windows & doors)
  • Experience working in a manufacturing, plant-based, or operations-driven environment, with direct exposure to production, scheduling, or capacity constraints.
  • Prior experience in customer escalation management, key-account support, or order fulfillment, particularly in environments with complex products or lead times.
  • Familiarity with ERP systems and case-management tools (e.g., Salesforce, Titan, or similar platforms) and a demonstrated preference for disciplined system usage over manual workarounds.
  • Experience supporting or coordinating work across multiple facilities or interplant networks, including transfers, exceptions, or shared capacity models.
  • Demonstrated ability to analyze trends, identify root causes, and translate operational data into actionable insights for leaders and cross-functional partners.
  • Experience working closely with Sales and Customer Service teams to align operational outcomes with customer commitments and expectations.
