Provide first-line support for desk phones, softphones, and call-quality issues, escalating as needed to Nextiva or the carrier.
Review and optimize Skills-Based Routing to connect callers with the right agent with minimal wait times.
Configure queues, routing and callbacks to support service level goals, monitor real-time metrics, and surface issues for staffing decisions.
Support bilingual IVR logic (English and Spanish), including language-based routing, voicemail separation and localized prompts.
Manage return of voicemails and requested callbacks as Work Items for agents during lower inbound volumes.
Maintain real-time presence on queue dashboards, identify bottlenecks, and escalate or reroute calls as necessary during business hours.
Ensure contact list metadata maps correctly from database uploads to the agent interface.
Design and maintain On-Screen Dynamic Surveys that adapt by fund ID and language to guide agents through appropriate flows based on skill and queue.
Verify that data captured in Nextiva/Thrio surveys is accurately recorded for KPI and operational reporting.
Review call dispositions to ensure outcomes yield clean data tied to KPIs; monitor patterns and surface issues for root-cause analysis.
Identify repeat caller patterns and report findings with remediation recommendations to operations leadership.
Set up automated alerts for SLA breaches, queue overflows, and agent availability thresholds to enable proactive response.
Monitor voice operations during business hours, tracking agent states, call quality, queue health, and system status.
Serve as the first escalation point for routing failures, IVR or auto-attendant errors, device issues, or live-call anomalies.
Collaborate with managers to align routing and configuration with staffing and volume patterns for informed decisions.
Maintain a daily operational log of changes, incidents, and queue performance; communicate updates during shift handoffs.
Provide training and ongoing technical enablement to department managers on platform use, supervisor dashboards, and reporting.

Keep standard operating procedures and training materials up to date to promote consistency and excellence.
Prioritize telecom administration while also supporting general IT workflows during periods of normal telephony volume.
As part of the IT support team, triage and resolve Tier 1 and 2 hardware, software, and network endpoint issues using the company ticketing system.
