• Listening, monitoring and reviewing dispatch calls made to and from our dispatch center to generate insights and improve protocols.
• Review performance through call recordings and transcriptions, using and improving our metrics for success.
• Identify areas for process or skills improvement within our dispatch team.
• Train and coach dispatchers on service, quality, and protocol adherence.

Basic requirements for the role:

• 7+ years of professional experience in one or more of the following: training, coaching, talent development, evaluations, monitoring, systems design, or product or tech design.
• Demonstrated abilities working closely with people in a diverse, growing and evolving team, with a proven track record of inspiring and engaging others toward collaborative work in a positive and supportive environment.
• Outstanding leadership, mediation, and communication skills.
• Top-notch listening and speed-typing skills.
