You’ll work closely with supervisors, directors, and HR to keep everything running smoothly and keep our agents happy and engaged.

This means balancing shifts based on forecasts, making adjustments as needed, and ensuring we have the right coverage during peak times while avoiding overstaffing. You'll work with managers to make sure the schedules comply with all labor regulations. Handle Time-Off Requests • You’ll oversee the entire time-off request process, making sure it runs smoothly.

Oversee Overtime, Voluntary Time Off (VTO), and Paid Time Off (PTO) • You’ll manage overtime slots, ensuring they’re aligned with operational demands and distributed fairly. You’ll also handle VTO, allowing agents to take time off when business is slow without using their paid time off, helping to manage costs while maintaining coverage. For PTO, you’ll oversee the allocation and approval process, ensuring agents are able to take their vacation and personal days while keeping staffing levels adequate. Your goal will be to balance company needs with employee well-being, ensuring the right resources are in place to meet demand while providing agents with flexible time off options.

You’ll report key metrics to the Director of Operations, helping guide decisions on workforce planning. Drive Process Improvement • You’ll regularly assess our scheduling, time-off, and overtime processes, always looking for ways to make things better. You’ll work closely with HR, supervisors, and directors to implement best practices and train team members on any updates or changes.
