About the Role
This role sits within a structured, SLA-driven Customer Support Hub delivering multi-channel service and operational execution across phone, chat, email, and back-office workflows.

Operational Excellence: Meet or exceed SLAs, QA benchmarks, and productivity targets with high case accuracy and minimal rework.
