Job description

Operations Specialist

Location : Remote (with flexibility for overlapping U.S. business hours)

About the Role

Zappy BPO is seeking a highly organized and proactive Operations Specialist to support our key technology clients. This role sits at the heart of day-to-day operations — coordinating workflows, managing communication between internal teams and clients, and ensuring that all tasks are executed with precision and timeliness. The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced, structured environment and has a proven ability to manage competing priorities while maintaining exceptional attention to detail.

Key Responsibilities

  • Oversee daily workflows to ensure smooth delivery of services and operational tasks.
  • Track and update project timelines, deliverables, and task ownership in internal systems.
  • Identify bottlenecks or risks early and communicate proactively to ensure on-time completion.

Client & Team Communication

  • Act as a liaison between internal teams and client stakeholders to ensure alignment on priorities and deliverables.
  • Manage inbound operational requests, triaging and routing tasks efficiently.
  • Communicate status updates, progress reports, and key outcomes clearly and consistently.
  • Data Management & Reporting

  • Maintain accurate operational data in platforms such as CRMs, project trackers, or TMS systems.
  • Prepare daily or weekly reports summarizing activities, KPIs, and areas for improvement.
  • Analyze operational metrics to identify trends, inefficiencies, or process opportunities.
  • Process Optimization & Quality Assurance

  • Support the creation and refinement of SOPs to improve consistency and scalability.
  • Audit workflows regularly to ensure compliance with quality and performance standards.
  • Suggest process improvements to increase efficiency and reduce operational errors.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Work closely with team leads, quality, and training teams to ensure smooth handoffs and performance alignment.
  • Coordinate with other departments (finance, HR, tech) as needed to resolve operational dependencies.
  • Participate in recurring syncs and client meetings to maintain alignment across stakeholders.
  • Qualifications

  • 3–5 years of experience in operations, project coordination, or account support (BPO, logistics, or tech environment preferred).
  • Exceptional organizational and multitasking skills with strong attention to detail.
  • Excellent spoken and written English; comfortable communicating with U.S.-based clients and cross-functional teams.
  • Proficiency with tools like Google Workspace, Excel / Sheets, CRMs, and project management platforms (e.g., Asana, Monday.com, Notion, or ClickUp).
  • Demonstrated ability to analyze data, identify patterns, and translate insights into action.
  • Strong problem‑solving abilities and a “get it done” attitude in dynamic environments.
  • Preferred Attributes

  • Prior experience supporting U.S.-based clients in logistics, technology, or service delivery environments.
  • Familiarity with KPI tracking, process documentation, and continuous improvement practices.
  • High level of accountability, ownership, and follow-through.
  • A proactive communicator who anticipates needs before they become issues.
  • Passion for operational excellence and supporting team success.
