About the role

You'll sit in Frontline Operations, working alongside the operations managers who run our frontline teams, including the vendor teams who deliver alongside us. Your closest partners are Advanced Analytics, Capacity Planning, Quality Analytics, Business Intelligence and Tools Support.

What they're looking for

  • Break down frontline performance by specialist, queue, vendor and site — analysing operational data to get to the level of detail the question actually needs

  • Write the requirements for specialist metrics and dashboards, and refine them with Tools Support, so the reporting frontline managers use every day answers their real questions
  • Work the boundaries deliberately: hand causes that aren't specialist-driven to Business Intelligence, take Capacity Planning's approved volume forecasts as an input, and use Quality Analytics' case audits as evidence
  • Sit in weekly business reviews and operational escalations, explaining what the data means to people who need to make a decision in the next ten minutes
  • Use AI tooling as a first resort rather than a last one, including our internal AI data analytics tools, to get to an answer in minutes instead of hours

Right now, when a frontline metric moves, it takes several teams and several days to work out why, and the answer often arrives after the moment to act on it has passed. This role changes that. You will be the single...
