I lead remote customer service operations that improve quality, retention, and customer satisfaction.
What I'm looking for
I've led customer service operations at TELUS Digital, VXI Global Solutions, RSF Agency, and The Movement, managing remote teams, supervisors, service delivery, quality, and customer experience.
At TELUS Digital, I led 60 agents and improved CSAT from 75% to 85%, ASAT from 70% to 85%, QA from 80% to 90%, and sales conversion from 17% to 30%. I also reduced average handling time from 425 to 325 seconds, attrition from 11% to 5%, and absenteeism from 9% to 5%.
I've used Salesforce, Einstein, Tellygence, and internal CRM platforms to manage customer records, cases, follow-ups, escalations, retention activity, and reporting. My approach combines data-informed coaching, accountability, supervisor development, and practical process improvement.
