@chiomaigbo
Customer Support & Operations leader improving SLA, escalations, and service quality.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Customer Support and Service Operations professional with 15+ years of experience leading customer-facing teams, handling escalations, and driving service quality improvement through KPI monitoring and operational reporting. I’m especially effective in SLA discipline, queue ownership, quality audits, and turning structured feedback routines into measurable performance gains.
I’ve led service operations across regions and branches, resolving customer complaints and recurring pain points with a root-cause problem-solving mindset. From coaching teams and strengthening controls to delivering dashboards with operational updates for leadership, I focus on clear communication, accurate documentation, and continuous improvement—especially in remote, self-managed environments.
