Primary Responsibilities

• Support customer segment-specific sales enablement and frontline readiness by developing/refreshing CX materials and improving usability for retail and care teams.

• Provide general support for CX team including crafting executive-facing readouts, journey maps, and project plans; coordinating stakeholder meetings; owning workstreams; and building timelines.

Qualifications & Skill Set

• 3–5 years of experience in customer experience, sales, marketing, consulting, or similar analytical/strategy roles; telecom experience preferred, with familiarity across acquisition, care, billing, and retention journeys.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills; comfortable converting data and voice-of-customer insights into clear recommendations and action plans.

• Excellent communication skills with experience preparing stakeholder updates, decision memos, and/or presentations for senior audiences.

• Experience with voice-of-customer methods (call listening, surveys, text analytics) and/or competitive benchmarking.

• Comfort with ambiguity and building lightweight processes (intake, prioritization, QA checklists).

• Not a requirement, but a plus if you are fluent in Spanish and English (professional written and verbal); able to review and QA customer-facing content (copy, scripts, UI) for linguistic accuracy, consistency, and cultural relevance across diverse Hispanic/Latinx audiences and regional nuances.

• Build partnerships, review current processes, and establish a clear intake workflow.

• Assess gaps with call monitoring and channel reviews, define metrics and roadmap, and deliver 1–2 documented quick fixes.
