Responsibilities
- Defining the multi-year operating model across Care, Customer Success, and Print/Ship Operations: the channel strategy, the vendor footprint, the technology stack, and the quality framework, and translating it into a quarterly roadmap with clear owners, milestones, and success metrics
- Building and leading a team of managers across the three functions: hiring, developing, and holding the bar for a leadership bench that scales with the business
- Owning the operating budget and unit economics across human handling, vendor spend, and fulfillment cost-to-serve, modeling where to invest, where to consolidate vendors, and where to renegotiate
- Serving as the executive operational voice for Support Operations: representing the function in ELT reviews, board materials, client QBRs, and new business pursuits
- Owning service levels across phone, email, and chat: response time, resolution time, first-contact resolution, and CSAT against forecasted volume and seasonal patterns
- Directing the workforce model: staffing, scheduling, intraday operating standards, and the cross-channel playbook for peak events, launches, and recovery scenarios
- Establishing the quality program: calibration cadence, coaching frameworks, and the link between QA outcomes and reinforcement learning for agents
- Owning the Care knowledge architecture and the tooling that lets agents resolve issues at first contact
- Driving retention for the existing book of health plan and retail partner clients
- Defining the health-scoring framework, EBR cadence, and the early-warning system for at-risk accounts, with a clear escalation path into the exec team
- Partnering with Commercial on expansion opportunities and with Product on what each client needs from the roadmap
- Driving throughput, on-time ship rate, and defect rate across all printed and shipped materials: cards, kits, and member communications
- Setting the vendor strategy for print, mail, and fulfillment partners: selection, scope allocation, commercial terms, SLAs, and the periodic RFPs and renewals that follow
- Owning the cost per unit and the operating budget for fulfillment, and the capacity model tied to client launches and seasonal volume
- Personally owning the most senior fulfillment vendor relationships at the principal or VP level
- Defining the metrics that matter across all three functions: service levels, NRR, fulfillment SLAs, cost-to-serve and ensuring the analytics function produces a defensible, accurate narrative for every audience
- Owning the technology roadmap for Support Operations: contact center platforms, CRM, WFM tooling, knowledge platforms, and fulfillment systems, and partnering with IT, Engineering, and Product on selection, implementation, and continuous improvement
- Designing the handoffs between Care, Customer Success, and Print/Ship Operations so the member and the client experience is cohesive, not three disconnected teams
- Serving as a credible, senior operational presence for health plan and retail clients: leading client-facing performance conversations, contributing to large new client onboardings, and acting as the executive escalation point for operational issues
Skills
- 10+ years of experience in operations, customer success, or service delivery leadership, including 5+ years leading multiple functions or a function with 50+ people, with demonstrated experience managing managers and building a multi-layer team
- Proven track record of running a contact center or high-volume service operation against SLAs in a regulated or compliance-heavy environment
- Direct experience owning a P&L or a multi-million-dollar operating budget, including the unit economics and the trade-offs across human handling, vendor spend, and technology
- Vendor management experience at scale: selecting, contracting, holding vendors accountable, and personally owning the most senior relationships
- Customer Success leadership experience in a B2B2C model where the buyer (health plan or retail partner) and the end user (member) are different people
- Prior ownership of a physical fulfillment, print, or mail operation, or demonstrated ability to learn the supply chain quickly
- A track record of building and scaling operations in healthcare, Medicare Advantage, Medicaid, benefits administration, or another regulated industry where PHI handling, member communication, and audit requirements are non-negotiable
- Demonstrated experience setting and executing an operating strategy: defining the model, building the roadmap, owning the budget, and reporting on results to executive and board audiences
- Strong analytics orientation: you build the dashboard yourself before you ask someone else to, and you know your numbers cold
- A senior operator who can move fluently between altitude and execution: board-ready strategy on Tuesday, a vendor escalation on Wednesday, a service-level review on Thursday, and brings the same rigor and care to all three
- A systems thinker who connects dots across operations, quality, technology, and finance: you build the case for change with data, sequence the work realistically, and drive sustainable improvements rather than one-time fixes
- Strong written and verbal communication skills: you can write a board-ready operating review, run a tense vendor governance meeting, walk a health plan client through a service issue, and translate operational tradeoffs into clear business language
- A clear passion for, if not direct experience in, addressing health inequities: you understand that benefits access is a health equity issue and that the work you do leading Support Operations has a direct impact on real people's lives
- Commitment to building a psychologically safe environment and diverse culture that is highly collaborative, strives to set and achieve goals together, and embraces transparency, innovation, and accountability
- A leader of leaders who invests in the people around them, hires and coaches with the same standards they expect of others, and holds the bar for the function
- Legal authorization to work in the US is required. At this time, evermore will not consider candidates who need sponsorship, now or in the future
