Building Bridges Between Technology and People: Sophie Shares her Experience

Customer Success Team Lead Sophie brings a unique blend of project management expertise and customer-first thinking to Future Ordering. Discover her journey from financial services to tech and what makes multi-country rollouts so rewarding.

Can you tell us a bit about your career journey before joining Future Ordering?

My career has taken me through a variety of customer-focused and operational roles, each one building skills I draw on every day. I started in retail sales, where I learned the importance of creating positive customer experiences. From there, I moved into financial services, advising customers and resolving issues across multiple support channels, which strengthened my problem-solving and communication skills.

I then took on a role in administration and quality assurance, where accuracy and attention to detail were essential. My first step into the tech field came at fintech company as a Delivery Manager, where I managed projects, coordinated service delivery, and honed my analytical skills in a fast-paced digital environment.

What made you choose Future Ordering over other opportunities?

Two things stood out: the vision and the impact. Future Ordering isn’t just selling software — it’s transforming how food & beverage businesses operate and how their customers experience ordering. I wanted to be part of a company where innovation is backed by a genuine commitment to customer success, not just a sales pitch. The opportunity to work alongside talented people who share that drive sealed the deal.

How would you describe your current role and what you enjoy most about it?

I see my role as a bridge between technology, people, and results. On the service delivery side, I ensure our solutions are implemented seamlessly, meeting both timeline and quality standards. As a team lead, I coach and support my customer success team so they can do their best work. Building strong relationships, anticipating client needs, and problem-solving quickly. The most rewarding part is seeing how our combined efforts directly help our clients grow and thrive.

What’s been your most memorable or rewarding moment so far?

Oh, it’s hard to choose, because there are so many!

One highlight was leading a complex, multi-country rollout for a major QSR brand. It had tight deadlines, unique operational requirements, and plenty of curveballs. Watching the project team deliver flawlessly and seeing the client’s excitement on launch day was incredibly fulfilling. Moments like that remind me that preparation, collaboration, and a customer-first mindset really do pay off.

Why did you choose to work in your field?

I’ve always been passionate about the intersection of technology and customer experience. From a young age, I naturally gravitated toward planning and organization, whether it was mapping out school projects or coordinating events. That skill has become one of the core foundations of my work in project management. In the food & beverage industry, where timing, precision, and adaptability are crucial, this ability to plan effectively allows me to guide projects smoothly from concept to delivery. Combining this with innovative technology solutions means I can help clients streamline their operations and create exceptional experiences for their customers.

What’s the best part about working at Future Ordering?

The combination of autonomy and trust. We’re given space to own our work and make decisions, while also knowing that help and collaboration are never far away. Add to that a strong sense of purpose, as we understand exactly how our work makes a difference, and it creates a highly motivating environment.

How would you describe the company culture and team dynamics?

It’s collaborative, fast-moving, and supportive. There’s a genuine willingness to share knowledge, jump in to help, and celebrate wins together. We’re ambitious about what we deliver, but we also make room for humor, creativity, and learning from each other’s expertise.

Why should someone consider applying to Future Ordering?

If you’re someone who thrives in a dynamic environment, wants to work on projects that have a visible, real-world impact, and enjoys being surrounded by smart, driven, and supportive colleagues then this is the place for you. You won’t just be doing a job here; you’ll be part of building solutions that reshape an entire industry.
