About the role

About Clipboard

Our mission is to uplift as many communities as possible. We do this through our app-based marketplace that connects healthcare professionals with the workplaces that need amazing workers. This enables hundreds of thousands of people to achieve financial stability for themselves and their families while providing essential care to millions of people across the U.S.

Founded in 2016, we are a remote-first team of over 1,000 people building a top Y-Combinator company and have been profitable since 2022. We’re the leader in Long-Term Care staffing and are rapidly expanding into Home Health, Hospitals, and more, meaning we have more work to do than people to do it, and are growing our team to support millions more people and their communities.

About the Role:

Worker Operations is the team that owns end-to-end operations and support for the supply-side (the workers) of our marketplace. We are over 200 team members who serve the 400,000+ (and growing) active professionals on our marketplace. As a Worker Operations Team Lead your primary role is to be an exceptional coach for your team.

Your responsibility is to provide agents with constructive feedback, identify the root causes of performance issues, and train them to address and correct those problems. You maintain high standards for your team and aren’t afraid to say, “This needs improvement, and here’s why.” You ensure that the customer experience remains the focal point of every discussion, set SMART goals for performance improvement, and deliver feedback that aligns with our standards. You’re also hands-on, willing to dive into customer issues directly, and you become a product expert so that you can coach your agents effectively.

This is a fully remote position. Team members are expected to maintain working hours that overlap with Pacific Time (PT) and be available to work weekend shifts as needed.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities:

Closely monitoring agent performance, primarily in terms of quality, productivity, and attendance metrics, with a primary goal of maintaining quality assurance scores above 90%

Providing frequent coaching to agents based QA feedback, metrics, customer survey responses, and your own ticket observations

Occasionally handling angry customer escalations

Ensure schedule adherence by agents and desired productivity levels

Maintaining coaching logs and providing regular written feedback to agents

Comfortably navigate our support environment, which includes tools such as Zendesk, Metabase, and Amazon Connect

Listen to team members’ feedback and resolve any challenges or conflicts

Initiate consequence management steps in the case of low-performing team members

Delegate tasks to high potential team members to build a culture of learning and development in the team

Suggest and lead team building activities for team motivation
