Producing clear process maps, customer journey maps and other artefacts that provide visibility of the current operation.
You'll Use Operational Insight And Performance Data To
Analyse contact volumes, contact drivers, AHT, FCR, repeat contacts, CSAT and NPS.
Identify the key drivers of operational cost, repeat contact and customer dissatisfaction.
Quantify improvement opportunities and develop evidence-based business cases.

Create and maintain a prioritised backlog of improvement initiatives.
Recommend practical solutions such as process simplification, automation, knowledge optimisation, improved triage and routing, and upstream process improvements.
Support operational and delivery teams to move ideas into implementation, balancing achievable quick wins with longer-term improvements.
What You'll Deliver
Role Success in this role will be measured by the tangible improvements you identify and the practical roadmap you leave behind.
By the end of the contract, you'll have delivered:
A comprehensive set of current-state customer journey and process maps.
Root-cause analysis identifying operational pain points and improvement opportunities.
A prioritised roadmap of initiatives with clearly defined customer and business benefits.
Business cases with quantified financial and customer outcomes.
A practical implementation plan balancing quick wins with longer-term initiatives.
About You

Excellent stakeholder management, facilitation and influencing skills, with the ability to build credibility quickly across operational and business teams.
