The Role
The Operations Manager (Marketplace) shifts the operational focus from frontline task tracking to holistic team performance ownership. This role is fully accountable for driving the throughput, quality, and SLA performance of an operational domain by managing through a tier of Supervisors and Leads.
In addition to workforce planning, scheduling, and direct people management, the Operations Manager (Marketplace) acts as a key bridge between frontline execution and technical systems. This role personally owns recurring domain reporting and dashboards by independently writing and validating SQL queries. Leveraging these insights, the Operations Manager actively spots bad data, broken inputs, and repeat operational failure patterns, while partnering with Technical Analysts to refine, shape, and tune AI agent prompts and automated workflows based on real-world operational feedback.
