About the opportunity:

We are on a mission to disrupt the car ownership experience, and help people who rely on their vehicles everyday save time and money on one of their most expensive, time-consuming and high-maintenance assets.

Reporting to our Vice President, Insurance Operations and working closely with senior leaders across finance, marketing, product, data analytics and people operations, you will play a critical role in scaling our insurance business. You will oversee the day-to-day management of multiple contact center teams, driving team productivity and effectiveness, tackling operational issues, and moving the needle on key metrics for our customer conversion and retention, and unit economics. You will dive deep into our customer funnel, analyze individual and team performance, and make data-driven recommendations to optimize internal work streams, training and processes.

  • Ownership: No challenge is too complex, no issue is too hard.

  • Decisive: You’re comfortable navigating high-stakes, conflict-laden situations, and can act quickly and decisively with diplomacy and tact.

  • Extremely organized: You balance a packed schedule, an endless to-do list, and never let anything drop.
