As a training manager, you will lead and oversee the training operations in Saudi Arabia, ensuring the delivery of high-quality training programs for our customer service teams. You will manage a team of training leads and trainers, align training initiatives with business objectives, and drive continuous improvement in trainers' performance and customer satisfaction. This role requires strategic oversight, stakeholder collaboration, and a focus on achieving measurable outcomes in a fast-paced CX environment.

• Collaborate with stakeholders, including HR, talent acquisition, CX operations, quality, and content teams, to align programs with organizational goals and address gaps in hiring, quality, and operations.
• Analyze training outcomes, agent performance data, and customer interaction quality across different channels (calls, emails, and chats) to identify trends, root causes of issues, and opportunities for improvement; provide data-driven recommendations and implement solutions.
• Develop and maintain certification mechanisms for trainers and leads, including train-the-trainer programs, upskilling workshops, and remote facilitation skills.
• Track and report on key metrics such as training throughput, feedback, and customer satisfaction; make necessary adjustments to enhance outcomes.
• Ensure compliance with adult learning principles, cultural nuances of the GCC region, and best practices in managing remote and on-site teams.
