Job description
About the Position
We’re looking for a Workforce Management Operations Partner Senior Lead to join our Operational team in our Tallinn office!
Responsibilities
- Accountable for the WFM–Operations partnering model: Ensuring Workforce Management disciplines are consistently embedded into operational decision-making across the business.
- Own the quality, consistency, and effectiveness of WFM partnership with Operations.
- Ensure intraday, scheduling, and capacity principles are applied correctly.
- Handle escalations with discipline and ensure short-term decisions do not undermine medium- and long-term workforce plans.
- Lead the Ops Partner function, set standards, manage people, and act as the senior WFM representative in complex operational trade-offs.
- Institutionalise WFM decision-making inside Operations, moving the organisation from reactive firefighting to predictable, data-driven execution at scale.
Requirements
- 4+ Years WFM/Ops Experience: Proven track record in high-volume, scaled environments (Contact Centers or Shared Services).
- Financial Services Knowledge: Specific understanding of KYC, FinCrime, or regulated operational environments.
- The "Translator" Ability: Capable of turning complex WFM jargon (Erlang, Shrinkage, Occupancy) into clear, actionable business advice.
- Strategic Assertiveness: The backbone to constructively challenge senior leaders and say "no" when decisions undermine WFM plans.
- Analytical Reasoning: Ability to interpret data trends and identify leading vs. lagging indicators rather than just reading metrics.
- Stakeholder Management: Experience acting as a partner rather than just a reporting function; comfortable operating with Heads of Departments.
- Forward-Looking Mindset: A bias toward proactive risk identification and prevention rather than reactive firefighting.
- Change Management: Experience driving the adoption of new playbooks or frameworks across different operational units.
Nice to Have
- Tool Proficiency: Functional familiarity with WFM software (e.g., Calabrio, NICE, Verint) to understand outputs and constraints.
- Coaching & Mentorship: Experience in a lead or mentor capacity, specifically helping others improve their decision-making quality.
- SQL or Data Viz Skills: Ability to self-serve data using tools like Looker to verify trends before stakeholder meetings.
We Offer
- Competitive Salary: EUR 4950 - EUR 7750 monthly
- Relocation and Visa support available
- Inclusive and diverse work environment: We celebrate our differences and ensure every Wiser feels respected and empowered.
