About Paul Ellul

Customer Success & Support Operations Leader | Program & Team Builder | SaaS, GovTech, EdTech, & FinTechI’ve spent 18+ years building teams, fixing broken processes, and making sure customers get what they need without getting lost in the system. Along the way, I’ve managed $175M+ in government programs, led teams of 50+, and kept customer satisfaction above 90% even when the stakes (and the volume) were sky-high.At Merit International, I overhauled support operations for state-funded education programs—cutting service timelines by 60% and keeping error rates under 1% across half a million transactions. My work often sat at the intersection of digital wallets, verified identity platforms, and large-scale fund disbursement, where compliance and user trust were non-negotiable.Before that, I spent 15 years at SpeakerMatch scaling a two-sided marketplace to clients, wearing every hat from product to operations to strategy.What I’m best at: translating messy, complex stakeholder needs into simple, scalable systems that actually work. Whether it’s customer success, program management, or operations leadership, I’m driven by one question: how do we create the most value for the end user?Now, I’m looking for the next challenge where I can lead teams, shape strategy, and turn ambitious goals into measurable results.
