Support Services/Customer Operations 🚀
As a Training and Onboarding Specialist, your mission is two-fold: to design and deliver best-in-class onboarding programs for new hires, and to ensure the continuous upskilling of our existing Customer Operations team. You will create engaging training materials and lead sessions on new products, processes, and systems. This role also involves the critical task of creating, maintaining, and updating shared knowledge and departmental documentation, ensuring our frontline teams are supported with accurate, timely, and compliant information that is the foundation for all training efforts.

What You’ll Be Doing 🗃️

• Develop, and implement unified onboarding programs for all new hires across Customer Operations to ensure they are equipped with the foundational knowledge and skills required for their roles.


• Develop, deliver, and facilitate engaging and impactful training sessions and workshops for the existing team on new products, processes, systems, and compliance updates to drive continuous upskilling and development of colleagues.


• Collaborate closely with cross-functional Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to identify training needs and translate complex operational procedures into clear, accessible, and compliant training materials.


• Manage the end-to-end content lifecycle of all training materials, shared knowledge assets, and departmental documentation, ensuring they are accurate, up-to-date, and serve as the single source of truth for the Customer Operations team.


• Maintain strict documentation and sign-off protocols for all training and operational assets to ensure full compliance with internal regulations.


• Evaluate the effectiveness of training and onboarding programs using performance metrics, feedback, and assessments to drive continuous improvement and ensure the "operational readiness" of frontline colleagues.


• Have flexibility in shift times to ensure that there is full coverage for training delivery and front line support duties
