O stanowisku
Hi! I'm Allie, Head of Support at Ashby. 👋 As our Support organization scales globally, one of the most critical levers for delivering an exceptional customer experience is making sure we have the right capacity, in the right places, at the right times, without sacrificing flexibility, quality, or humanity.
We recently hired our first Workforce Management Lead to build the forecasting and capacity-planning foundation for the team. Now we're adding a Real Time Analyst to own the execution layer: turning those forecasts into thoughtful schedules and managing coverage in real time as the day unfolds.
This is not a traditional call-center WFM role. Our Support team is highly tenured, deeply technical, and made up of thoughtful practitioners who regularly contribute beyond tickets, partnering on projects, enabling self-service, shaping tooling, and influencing product direction. Your job is to keep coverage healthy and SLAs met while protecting the flexibility that lets this team do its best work. You'll treat real-time management as an enabling function, not an adherence-policing exercise.
This role is for someone who loves the craft of scheduling and the fast pace of intraday management, is energized by live problem-solving, and sees patterns in real-time data that make the whole operation run smoother.
About This Role
As the Real Time Analyst, you'll own scheduling and real-time analysis (RTA) for a global Support organization. You'll partner closely with our WFM Lead,…
Czy do nas pasujesz?
Hands-on experience with scheduling and/or real-time/intraday management in a Support, CX, or technical services environment (e.g., WFM Analyst, RTA Analyst, or Scheduling Analyst).
Strong grasp of coverage strategies, adherence/shrinkage/occupancy/conformance concepts, and how they translate into daily service levels.
Comfort making sound real-time decisions with imperfect information and a fast clock.
Highly analytical, able to read live data quickly and turn it into clear, actionable adjustments and recommendations.
Experience with WFM/scheduling tooling and comfort building or maintaining dashboards.
Familiarity working with Support metrics and SLAs in a nuanced, non-mechanical way.
Deep respect for the expertise of Support professionals and an appreciation for flexible, trust-based environments.
Strong communicator who can flag risk and coordinate live adjustments without reading as "policing."
Comfortable partnering across managers and levels, and taking direction from the WFM Lead on strategy while owning the execution.
You love the craft of scheduling and the pace of real-time coverage management.
You see WFM as an enabling function, not a policing one.
You're energized by live problem-solving and making quick, well-reasoned calls under pressure.
You're excited to partner with experienced, technical Support professionals who value autonomy and impact.
You want to help shape how scheduling and RTA operate as Support scales, while partnering with a WFM Lead who owns the forecasting foundation.
You're looking for a traditional Support environment focused primarily on adherence enforcement.
You want to own long-range forecasting and capacity strategy end-to-end (that sits with our WFM Lead; this role is the scheduling + RTA partner to it).
You prefer fixed rules and static models over iteration, flexibility, and real-time judgment.
You're uncomfortable operating in ambiguity or building structure where none yet exists.
You believe there's one "correct" way to staff or schedule Support.
We spend a lot of time building best-in-class products, since we believe a highly differentiated product is easier to sell.
