The Global Partner Operations team
The Marketplace support team supports our customers, partners and riders from all sides of the marketplace and the operations team owns agent performance, continuous improvement, change, and transformation. Our focus is improving Partner experience whilst delivering efficiencies in our frontline operations.
In this role you'll be involved in these key areas:
Managing channel, queue and team leader/ agent performance across our teams servicing UKI and SG Partners.
Identifying trends in performance and conducting root cause analysis (e.g. Vendor and Team Leader/agent productivity) to drive improved performance.
Helping define new metrics, targets and best practices to drive improvements in Partner experience (e.g. first touch resolution)
Present market performance updates and strategic implications to executive leadership.
Identify Operational efficiencies that can be gained through automation and process improvements.
What you’ll be doing
Monitoring and Tracking: Daily/weekly monitoring of key performance indicators (KPIs) for channels (e.g., chat, email, phone), service queues, team leaders, and individual agents across UKI and SG Partners.
Root Cause Analysis (RCA): Conducting deep dives and methodical investigations to identify the fundamental reasons behind performance trends (e.g., analysing agent productivity, training gaps, system errors, or vendor operational issues).
Trend Identification: Analysing data to spot emerging or recurring patterns in team and channel performance, service demand, and partner feedback.
Developing and delivering clear, data-driven presentations on current market performance (likely related to partner satisfaction or service delivery) and the strategic impact of those results to executive leadership.
Insight Generation: Translating raw performance data and market trends into actionable insights and strategic recommendations for senior decision-makers.
New Metric Development: Collaborating with stakeholders to research, define, pilot, and implement new service metrics (e.g., specific definitions for "First Touch Resolution" or "Partner Effort Score") that better reflect partner experience and business objectives.
Target Setting: Establishing challenging yet realistic performance targets and benchmarks for teams, channels, and vendors based on data analysis and industry best practices.
Best Practice Documentation: Documenting and disseminating successful processes, operational standards, and agent/team leader best practices across the UKI and SG partner-servicing teams.
Opportunity Identification: Auditing existing workflows and processes to pinpoint areas where operational efficiencies can be achieved (e.g., manual data entry, handoffs between teams).
Automation Scoping: Proposing and evaluating potential automation solutions (e.g., RPA, self-service tools, AI-assisted routing) to reduce manual effort and improve service speed.
Implementation Support: Collaborating with technology and operations teams to pilot, test, and roll out approved process improvements and automation initiatives.
All these activities may extend to other LOBs as well as Partner Operations.
