About the job
About the role
We are hiring a Senior Partner Manager on the Partner Strategy and Operations team to help strengthen partner-delivered operations across our global support ecosystem. This role goes beyond managing vendors: you will own the health, evolution, and strategic value of the member operations ecosystem, governing performance, challenging constraints, and translating frontline insights into organizational decisions.
Responsibilities
- Own performance governance for assigned Partner/BPO operations, including SLAs, quality, productivity, staffing adherence, operational efficiency, and member experience outcomes.
- Lead daily, weekly, and monthly partner performance reviews with clear metrics, action plans, owners, timelines, and expected business impact.
- Drive accountability with external partners by identifying performance gaps, aligning on corrective actions, managing escalations, and ensuring sustained follow-through.
- Challenge the current operating model by identifying opportunities across process redesign, automation and AI integration, channel optimization, and workforce and site strategy.
- Lead complex, cross-functional initiatives from problem definition through execution, change management, and post-launch measurement.
- Evaluate how AI and automation perform within partner operations, spotting failures in machine-led interactions and evolving oversight.
- Develop partners into operating peers who bring ideas, flag risks early, and challenge decisions.
- Spot emerging trends and translate them into root-cause insights, risk assessments, and data-backed recommendations.
- Partner closely with internal Member Experience teams, Workforce Management, Quality, Compliance, Product, Finance, Procurement, and Operations Strategy.
- Develop concise, executive-ready narratives that connect frontline performance, member impact, risks, and tradeoffs to a clear recommendation.
Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in Customer Experience, Partner/Vendor Management, Program Management, BPO operations, or a related operational leadership role.
- Professional experience directly related to BPO partner and/or program management, ideally within financial services or another highly regulated environment.
- Executive presence and sound business judgment, comfortable building trust and influencing decisions, with a strong sense of ownership and comfort operating autonomously in ambiguity.
- Strong analytical skills, demonstrated ability to identify trends, diagnose root causes, assess risks, and translate findings into actionable recommendations.
- Demonstrated ability to challenge the status quo, a track record of redesigning a process, system, or operating model, paired with influence, relationship-building, and communication skills.
- Curiosity about how AI and automation are reshaping frontline work, and experience evaluating or deploying them in an operations environment is a plus.
- Willingness to travel domestically and internationally approximately 25% of the time.
- Proficiency with tools such as Excel, Google Sheets, Looker, Google Slides, Jira, or similar reporting, presentation, and project-management tools.
- Experience in Customer Support, Account Access and Identity, Risk, Complaints, Disputes, Escalations, Social Media support, or other specialized servicing environments is highly desired.
