  • 4. Process & Reporting

  • Standardize documentation and ensure alignment to Central CX SOPs.
  • Track and report on performance metrics across deals, including consumption, delivery, invoicing, receivables, margins, and EBITDA.
  • Provide insights and recommendations to leadership in case of shortfalls or risks.
  • Maintain accurate operational data in the Ops Platform for monthly target setting.
  • Qualifications
