  Identify opportunities to expand scope (additional channels, member journey support, new service lines) in partnership with Sharecare leadership and the client.

• Team Build & People Leadership
  Hire, onboard, and develop a net new frontline team in partnership with Sharecare HR, Recruiting, and Operational Excellence.

  Lead operational transitions including technology migrations and platform consolidations in coordination with engineering teams.
  Identify and implement process improvements to enhance service efficiency, quality, and member outcomes.
