  • Commercial & Financial Acumen: Demonstrate a strong grasp of operational costs, return on investment, and future system budget requirements 
  • Leadership, Influence & Stakeholder Management: Act as a credible, confident advisor who commands respect and influences senior stakeholders and direct reports.

 

Your profile:

  • Contact Centre Operations: Solid background in CC environments with proven operational and internal advisory experience.
  • Tech & Automation Acumen: Strong understanding of how AI, automation, and tech transform CC performance and customer experience (IT expertise not required).
  • Strategic Transformation: Track record of driving change, designing future operating models (e.g., pooling, offshoring), and managing strategic initiatives.
  • Data-Driven Decision Making: Strong analytical skills using data and operational metrics (NPS, conversion, turnover) to steer decisions.
  • Resilience & Drive: High resilience in managing change, ambiguity, and competing priorities.
