This role blends leadership and operations. You will own QA, scheduling, and team development while also driving special projects that improve efficiency and customer satisfaction. As both a coach and a collaborator, you will empower agents and team leads to perform at their best while working cross-functionally to evolve our customer experience as Freebird continues to grow.

Optimize Processes & Tools

  • Partner with the Director of Customer Support to refine support processes, document SOPs, and maintain accurate knowledge bases
  • Implement new Gorgias flows, macros, and automation to improve efficiency
  • Lead projects such as ongoing training programs, automation improvements, streamlining for returns and warranty, and additional as they arise.
  • Optimize support processes using the resources at hand, while staying flexible in a rapidly evolving environment.

Workforce & Capacity Planning

  • Own scheduling (with TL support), ensuring full coverage and SLA adherence
  • Monitor productivity, track ticket backlogs, and adjust staffing during peak periods
  • Report weekly on SLA performance, volume trends, and workload balance

Handle Escalations

  • Serve as the escalation point for complex or high-priority tickets, including outreach to low reviews and product ratings.
  • Resolve issues with empathy and professionalism, ensuring customer trust and satisfaction
Requirements
  • 3–5 years in CX leadership (Manager, Supervisor, or Team Lead) within e-commerce, CPG, subscription services, or a similar high-volume environment. Direct experience managing 15–30+ agents (including offshore/BPO teams)
  • Hands-on experience with Shopify and Gorgias (minimum 1–2 years). Bonus: familiarity with QA tools like Scorebuddy and workforce tools like Hubstaff
  • Proven ability to build and run QA programs, create scorecards, and coach for performance improvement
  • Skilled in scheduling, staffing models, and SLA tracking
  • Comfortable reporting on CSAT, FRT, Resolution Time, Contact Rate, and Cost per Ticket, and maintaining multiple dashboards.
  • Strong communicator, highly organized, and passionate about delivering excellent customer experiences
Benefits

This is a chance to take on the challenge of building structure in a fast-growing, bootstrapped 9-figure brand. You’ll have the freedom to explore what world-class support could look like and bring those ideas forward, helping to  set the foundation for how Freebird delivers excellent customer service and satisfaction. 

You will also have the opportunity to create impact beyond day-to-day operations, leading projects that improve efficiency, strengthen our team, and raise the standard. Your contributions will directly shape how our support evolves.
