  • Drive cross-selling initiatives to introduce new services that support client business goals.
  • Maintain strong, collaborative partnerships with vendor leadership.
  • Team & People Management

  • Manage the workload, priorities, and resourcing of the operational team to meet business objectives.
  • Develop and execute performance management plans, including tracking KPIs, setting career development goals, and overseeing learning and development initiatives.
  • Provide mentoring, training, and coaching for team members, including identifying and conducting upskilling programs.
  • Oversee HR-related matters, including grievance management, disciplinary processes, and counselling, ensuring alignment with legal requirements and internal HR policies.
  • Operational Excellence & Continuous Improvement

  • Identify opportunities to optimize frontline workflows and enhance customer satisfaction through technology, training, and process innovation.
  • Lead initiatives to improve service delivery, onboarding, training, and knowledge management.
  • Ensure compliance with internal policies, industry standards, and regulatory requirements.
  • Budgeting & Strategic Planning

  • Collaborate with team leaders, account managers, and cross-functional stakeholders to formulate and implement business plans aligned with company strategy.
  • Coordinate and align activities with internal stakeholders to ensure seamless execution of initiatives and service delivery improvements.
  • Lead project teams in the implementation of new services, process enhancements, and change management efforts.
  • Support budgeting, forecasting, and cost management for frontline services.
  • Contribute to strategic planning efforts related to scaling, transitioning, or transforming service operations.
  • Key Requirements

  • Tertiary education in Business Administration, Operations Management, Human Resources, or a related discipline.
  • Proven account servicing and stakeholder management experience in large-scale, customer-facing or frontline operations. Experience in industries with a high volume of direct customer interaction (e.g., retail, hospitality, tourism, public services, or entertainment).
