Call centre manager
A call centre manager oversees all aspects of the daily running of a call centre.

Call centres can either deal with inbound calls (mainly requests, complaints or queries), or outbound calls (gathering information or promoting and selling products). Call centre managers are responsible for standards and targets relating to customer service, such as customer service targets, improvement and development of particular areas of the centre and staff management. They also correspond with businesses for which they are providing a service.
