- Team and people. Maintaining stability and morale, developing senior agents into team leads, fostering culture.
- Operations. Quality of support for VIP and mass segments, handling critical situations, internal processes and scripts.
- VIP Prioritization. Allocating and maintaining a priority line for the VIP segment: dedicated agent group, separate queue, faster SLAs, personalized communication tone.

Who we are looking for
- Experience in iGaming / online gambling is mandatory — this is a specific industry, and we don't have time for adaptation from other fields.
- 3+ years in a direct management role of a support team of 10-25 people.
- Real experience working with the VIP segment and understanding the difference between VIP and mass psychology.
- Experience working in conditions of market turbulence — situations where the team works with factors they cannot directly influence. Please elaborate on this in your cover letter.
- Experience working in Asian and/or Latin American markets — will be a significant plus.
- Experience with multi-channel support (chat, email, messengers).
- Systematic experience in hiring and onboarding agents — an established process, not one-off hires.
- Experience developing senior agents into team leads.
- Willingness to get hands-on: personally resolve complex tickets, conduct training, be present in chat during peak hours.
- Emotional maturity to manage a team in a challenging market context.
- English from B2 level.
- Experience with Intercom / Zendesk / LiveAgent / Freshdesk systems or their equivalents.
- Understanding of fraud signals and basic RG practices (responsible gambling).
- Knowledge of Spanish / Portuguese / Asian market languages will be a plus.
What this role will NOT involve
— This is not a "hands-off Head" role with distance from the team — involvement is required.
— This is not building a department from scratch — we have established processes that need development.
— This is not a position for those who first and foremost bring in their own team and change everything to their liking.
— This is not an "easy" role — the market is currently challenging, and we don't hide that.
Conditions
— Competitive salary
— Paid vacation 28 days / 5 days off
