Employers
Because most companies value good customer service, there are job opportunities in a wide range of industries—from retail and wholesale to health care and technology. Some customer service directors work for companies which host big call centers. Others may work at the head office of a corporate business. Still others handle customer service needs in smaller companies.
Starting Out
Customer service director is not an entry-level job. The best way for aspiring customer service directors to enter the field is by getting experience in a customer service department, moving into supervisory positions, and eventually becoming a customer service director. The best chance of employment for individuals without a great deal of experience will be in smaller companies.
