@sushmithas
I lead SaaS support operations that improve CSAT, SLAs, retention, and response times.
What I'm looking for
At KBS, I sustain 93% client retention across a 20–25 account portfolio by running quarterly business reviews, feedback loops, and cross-functional escalation management.
Previously at Astrotalk, I raised CSAT from 82% to 91%, cut response time by 25%, and improved First Contact Resolution by 20% while coaching a seven-agent team handling 10,000+ monthly customer interactions. I redesigned support workflows, strengthened SLA monitoring across chat and voice, and created team-wide SOPs.
At Tata Consultancy Services, I supported Nielsen FMCG operations, resolved 95% of escalations within SLA, and improved audit turnaround time by 12% through root-cause analysis and workflow redesign. I use Zendesk, Freshdesk, Salesforce, and CRM reporting to turn support data into measurable CX and revenue outcomes.
