    • Act as a primary liaison between the US-based management team, internal compliance, and the BPO team in the Philippines, ensuring smooth communication and alignment on processes.
    • Forecast agent hours required for the month based on call volume, business trends, and operational demand to ensure staffing aligns with goals.
    • Coordinate regular updates and reports on performance metrics, agent productivity, and compliance standards between the US and BPO teams.
    • Work closely with compliance teams to ensure telephony processes adhere to regulatory requirements, industry best practices, and business objectives.
    • Facilitate communication between the scripting, telephony, and AI quality analytics teams to ensure that adjustments and improvements align with operational and business goals.
    • Schedule and lead regular operational review meetings with the BPO management team and other stakeholders to discuss performance metrics and operational challenges.
  • Data and Reporting:
    • Develop and manage dashboards and reports to track agent performance, call metrics, system uptime, and compliance.
    • Provide regular insights and feedback to leadership on telephony performance, system enhancements, and areas of improvement.
    • Collaborate with data analysts to ensure accurate reporting and visibility into key metrics (revenue, conversion rates, agent performance, etc.).

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Information Technology, Operations Management, Business Administration, or a related field.
  • 3+ years of experience in telephony system administration (Five9 experience preferred) with a deep understanding of call routing, IVR systems, and performance tracking.
  • Experience in operations management, particularly within a BPO or contact center environment.
  • Experience in forecasting agent hours and managing workforce planning.
