About the Role
This is your opportunity to significantly contribute to formulating an elite delivery function that directly supports all of our talent within our SMB segment while also supporting our Client Business Unit Partners with delivery excellence. You will be at the helm of delivering an exceptional talent experience.
Our core delivery model is embedded teams of software engineers who are remote and distributed. As such, you’ll need to be adept at enabling passionate people to deliver their best and facilitating programs necessary to scale with our Clients.
To ensure success, you’re keen on engaging directly with clients to resolve non-technical issues, escalating technical issues to the Technical Delivery Managers (TDMs) to address, and working with Talent Experience (TX) to enrich the delivery and engineer experience. This success enablement can span pre-sales, talent onboarding, and talent off-boarding.
In addition, you always have an eye on how to ensure stability in delivery through a period of great change. You can creatively adapt to changing needs across industries and collaborate with stakeholders to bring value propositions - in service to what Andela does.
As a global company, you will be working with talent and clients in various time zones. Your business hours will align with engagement needs, and we strive to have at least a 5-hour overlap with our clients.
Your role is to ensure engagements are successful while owning client/internal stakeholder inquiries across an array of topics, including but not limited to: developer concerns, infrastructure and machine needs, and business-related matters.
You are constantly asking yourself:
How do I ensure clients are impressed with the engagement and productivity of their Andela talents?
How do I ensure Andela Talents are enriched and supported as they deliver for our Clients?
You’re passionate about delivering outstanding service while maintaining efficiencies at scale.
You will combine your eagerness to learn, can-do attitude, and collaboration skills to deliver an exceptional experience.
