  • Proven success in leading operational or call center teams, with a focus on automation, process redesign, and scalable operations.
  • Strong business acumen and the confidence to challenge the status quo when necessary.
  • Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, growth-oriented environment.

Additional Information:
