THE ROLE
This position is primarily an office-based hybrid role located in Madrid.

When issues do arise, this person is expected to keep the user base informed of issues, set clear expectations for how the issue will be addressed and when a resolution can be expected.
WIDER TEAM
The individual will work closely with the local team and the global Legends Global technical support teams in America and the UK to provide service excellence. There will be regular collaboration between this role and the other geographically dispersed technical employees, along with outside vendors when there is an issue.
