- Set clear performance expectations, hold regular one-on-ones, and coach from the data - including recorded call reviews
Own the numbers- Build and maintain daily, weekly, and monthly dashboards covering call volume, booking and conversion rates, abandonment, and response times
- Use AI and modern tools to create reports and automations that improve visibility and cut manual admin work
- Lead headcount and workforce planning - forecast staffing against seasonal demand, build coverage schedules, and partner with HR and Operations on hiring
- Keep leadership informed on results, risks, and what you're doing about them - no surprises
