About Upcision

Upcision is a leading lead generation agency serving SMBs to Fortune 500 clients. Our executors are strong and throughput is real. This is a key hire who will be in charge of ensuring all systems perform under load. You're a tenacious operator who thinks strategically, acts tactically.

About You:

Are you someone who has "been there, done that" with Ops, managed multiple
- volume swim lanes & are incessant on quality? Do you think 3 steps ahead but then love to roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty? Do you have a tenacious grit that knows how to solve problems and master systems?

If YES, we'd love to hear from you at Upcision.

Here's what you will own

Oversee Ops across a 6-7 person team delivering multiple
- volume email campaigns, overseeing multiple swim lanes.

Stop the line authority. If a QC gate fails, campaigns do not go live until corrected.

Turn SOPs into daily gates and checklists that are followed in practice, not just documented.

Quickly surface breakages and be in charge of Root Cause Analysis. You're analytical, you read between lines.

Operational memory that survives turnover and stress. You keep the “why” behind rules, fixes, and exceptions explicit, current, and used.

Workflow simplification. You remove unnecessary complexity, tighten feedback loops, and make the right path the easiest path for the team.

Drift prevention. You keep standards alive in practice. You audit adherence, spot early slippage, and reset the line before errors spread. When a rule keeps failing, you redesign the step until compliance is natural.

You will be in the work daily, and above it daily. Your job is to make reality legible and the system durable.

Your background:

4 to 10 years owning operations reliability, service delivery, QA, or process enforcement in a throughput environment (agency, BPO, outbound, logistics, customer ops, fintech ops, or similar).

A track record of eliminating recurring operational failures, not just managing around them.

Comfort being the person who says “here is what is true, here is the proof, here is the correction, ” even when opinions are flying.

Strong written clarity. You can compress messy reality into a tight root cause and action plan others follow.

Systems fluency. You can trace evidence through CRMs, inbox stacks, spreadsheets, task boards, automations, and audit trails.

This role will frustrate you if you

Prefer consensus over standards

Diagnose by intuition instead of evidence

Avoid being accountable for hard answers

Think documentation alone creates compliance

Want to advise a line rather than own its reliability
