About The Role
We are looking for a hands-on operations leader to directly own people management and SLA (productivity, TAT and accuracy) delivery within a complex and high volume delivery organisation. This is a floor-level leadership role, not a distant oversight one managing TLs / AMs. The Ops Manager/DM runs daily operations and owns key customer SLAs along with improving Productivity, Accuracy and TAT.
Key Responsibilities
Own people management, attendance and SLA delivery for production team
Run daily standups; provide first-line coaching and handle performance conversations directly
Partner closely with the paired SME on domain/scope judgement calls and recurring RFI patterns — know when an issue is a people call versus a domain call
Own within-pod reallocation and rescheduling when delivery risk can be resolved using existing team capacity, work prioritization to meet TAT commitments
Escalate delivery risk to the Head of Operations directly when it exceeds what the pod can absorb on its own
Build and track individual development plans for team members in the pod
Report team-level productivity, accuracy, attendance and attrition to the Head of Operations on a weekly cadence
Drive adoption of new platform/AI features within the pod to improve hourly productivity
Must-Have Skills And Experience
6 to 10 years in operations/service delivery, ideally within BPO, shared services or a high-volume delivery environment
Direct people-management experience — has managed individual contributors directly, not just coordinated through other
