• Recruit, onboard, train, coach, and manage a Partner Operations team in India, establishing clear roles, performance expectations, development plans, and annual goals.

• Create an inclusive, accountable, and high-performing team culture grounded in UKG values, continuous learning, collaboration, and operational excellence.

• Manage daily operations, workload allocation, queue health, schedules, leave coverage, and month- and quarter-end readiness to consistently meet business requirements and service-level expectations.

• Own team performance through regular coaching, quality reviews, productivity and service metrics, timely feedback, recognition, and performance management.

• Oversee recurring operational requests and ensure accurate, timely records across designated systems and workflows.

• Ensure the team completes administrative, data-entry, validation, and documentation activities in accordance with established procedures, controls, and service-level commitments.

• Establish quality-control practices for reviewing submitted information, required approvals, completeness, and accuracy; ensure missing, inconsistent, or non-standard items are resolved or escalated promptly.

• Lead operational support for partner intake, qualification, approval, contracting, onboarding, lifecycle management, renewal, termination, and offboarding workflows.

• Maintain governance over account, contact, hierarchy, geographic, agreement, status, renewal, and termination data in Salesforce and other designated systems.

• Oversee lead entry and tracking, account matching, data-quality reviews, attribution clean-up, and related record-management activities.

• Ensure accurate and timely preparation of recurring files, reports, and data submissions for commissions, referral fees, program administration, forecasting, billing, and financial operations.

• Manage commercial program administration, including fee and billing files, payout preparation, vendor or program tracking, and follow-up on payment issues.

• Monitor assigned support queues, ensure timely responses to routine inquiries, and provide clear ownership and escalation paths for non-standard or high-risk issues.

• Serve as a trusted operational partner to onshore Partner Operations leaders and cross-functional stakeholders, communicating capacity, performance, dependencies, risks, and improvement opportunities.

• Document and standardize processes, maintain operating procedures and training materials, and identify opportunities to simplify, automate, and scale work.

• Provide operational leadership for technology, broker, services, GPO/PE, and other partner programs as assigned, adapting team capabilities as business needs evolve.

Qualifications:

• Twelve or more years of experience in partner operations, sales operations, commercial operations, business process support, finance operations, or a related field, including at least five years of people-leadership experience.

• Demonstrated success building, leading, coaching, and developing operational teams in a fast-paced, service-oriented environment.

• Experience managing service delivery, operational queues, workload planning, performance metrics, quality controls, escalations, and business continuity.

• Strong knowledge of partner, customer, or commercial lifecycle processes, such as intake, approval, contracting, onboarding, lead management, data governance, billing, commissions, renewals, and offboarding.

• Proven ability to build trusted relationships and influence stakeholders across functions, levels, cultures, and geographic locations.

• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making skills, with the ability to identify risk, resolve operational issues, and use data to improve performance.

• Experience with Salesforce and Microsoft applications; familiarity with ERP, workflow, ticketing, reporting, or partner-management systems.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to communicate priorities, performance, risks, and recommendations clearly.

• Strong attention to detail, sound judgment, and a consistent focus on data accuracy, process compliance, and stakeholder experience.
