Steph's Notes:
Uh. Buckle in, my friends, because this one is A RIDE.
I'm not entirely sure the Goals and Ethos statements aren't a parody of corporate mission and values statements. Also, are the "Our Ethos" statements supposed to be read as a sentence? Am I supposed to read these like hieroglyphs? I AM CONFUSION.
Hire and retain great talent in a diverse and encompassing workplace.
What...what does that mean?
Do you love career challenges, forums in which to collaborate with bright colleagues, and an opportunity to truly make a difference…then you’re on the right Careers Page!
I swear to god if they list attention to detail as a requirement...
We are looking for a detail-oriented...
MOTHERFU-
The random underlining. The changing font size. The different font colors. My eyes, they hurt.
Communicate clear vision and purpose across the business to help to draw the connection between direct support work and our broader company goals.
This position reports to the VP of Global Support, so this begs the question: what is the VP of Global Support doing, then?
Have a direct communication line to executive leadership to discuss the department’s vision, performance and barriers that are preventing the team from achieving their goals.
This sounds at best ominous and, at worst, a recipe for disaster. Are you just skipping your boss, the VP, entirely?
Develop an effective resourcing model that accounts for all resources needed by the Technical Support business to service new and existing customers, as well as ensure quality and response time are not affected by turnover.
As my friend Nicole pointed out, how bad is the turnover that you're mentioning it in the job description you're using to convince people to do this job?
Identifying opportunities for a menu of paid professional services that the support team could deliver in order to generate revenue.
Because nothing says success and stability like using your support team to desperately mine for revenue!
Continuous improvement focus, identifies root issues and experiments with fresh approaches that challenge existing ways of working in a good way.
WHAT IS A GOOD WAY OMG I CANNOT

What is going on at this company. Is the person who wrote this okay? Blink twice if you're being held hostage.
I don't even know how to end this one. I might need to walk it off.
