(Strategic Leader for High-Performance Outbound Sales Operations)**

About the Role

We are hiring a world-class Director of Call Center — someone who has built, scaled, and led large outbound sales call centers (400–500+ seat environments), understands the front-end and back-end operations better than anyone else, and can architect our entire call-center ecosystem from scratch.

This person must think like a CEO of the call center, not just a manager. Someone who walks in, evaluates the entire operation, and confidently tells us:

 How to scale rapidly without losing performance

 And how to run the call center better than anyone already here

This is a mission-critical leadership hire. We are looking for an operator who has done this at scale, understands outbound, high-pressure sales environments, and can build a high-performance culture that consistently drives revenue
