Bright Purple are looking for a Head of Technical Support to join a growing SaaS client. You’ll be part of a values-led, local team that believes in taking ownership, making things happen, and doing great work together. Expect greenfield projects, hands-on responsibility, and the chance to make a real impact in a growing business.
 
Benefits include:
 
  • 33 days annual leave
  • Vibrant and collaborative office in Leith
  • Autonomy, influence, and career development in a high-growth environment
 
As Head of Technical Support, you’ll lead and grow a small but high-performing team. This is a technical, sleeves-rolled-up kind of role, perfect for someone who loves diving into complex WiFi and networking issues while mentoring and coaching others.
 
What You’ll Be Doing:
 
  • Leading the technical support team and setting the standard for service excellence
  • Providing second and third-line support for users of Stampede’s SaaS platform
  • Troubleshooting complex networking, WiFi, and connectivity issues
  • Managing the onboarding and rollout of Stampede products to new clients
  • Collaborating with product, engineering, and customer teams to resolve escalations
  • Driving internal improvements in support processes and documentation
  • Hiring, training, and mentoring support engineers as the team grows
  • Acting as a trusted technical point of contact for customers
 
What We’re Looking For:
 
  • Proven experience leading technical support or service delivery in a SaaS or MSP environment
  • Deep networking knowledge – TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, VLANs, firewalls
  • Hands-on experience with cloud-managed WiFi systems like CloudTrax, Omada, Unifi, Plasma Cloud, or Open Mesh
  • Skilled in configuring and troubleshooting networking hardware (routers, switches, APs)
  • Understanding of captive portals, access control, and splash page configuration
  • Comfortable with tools like HubSpot, Zendesk, or other CRM/ticketing platforms
  • Excellent communicator – confident with both technical and non-technical users
  • Good grasp of GDPR and data protection best practices
 
If you’re an experienced tech support leader ready to make your mark in a fast-growing SaaS business with a strong product and supportive team, we’d love to hear from you.
 
Apply now with your CV and a member of the Bright Purple team will be in touch.
