I lead large-scale customer operations, improving KPI performance through coaching and continuous improvement.
What I'm looking for
I've led large-scale customer operations at AT&T, managing 10 team managers and approximately 140 representatives supporting U.S. Internet, TV, and landline customers. Within six months of becoming Area Manager, I ranked second among 13 European Area Managers.
I build accountable, motivated teams through coaching, clear performance expectations, and continuous improvement. At AT&T, I introduced a “Coach the Coach” model, aligned scheduling and incentives with HR, WFM, and Staffing, and supported operational reviews and strategic planning.
Earlier, I led customer care, sales, and multinational service teams at AT&T and TeleTech Ireland, including Google campaigns and Nissan Nordic customer services across seven countries. I’ve delivered service improvements, achieved repeated Team of the Month recognition, and won Global Idea of the Month.
I bring resilience and adaptability from my earlier work as an outdoor instructor, along with a little humour at no extra cost. I’m focused on driving service excellence, team performance, and practical operational change.
