Customer Service Operations Supervisor at Garner Health

We’re seeking an experienced, full-time Customer Service Supervisor to lead a team of Associates and Senior Associates within our fast-growing, member-focused Concierge team. The role is focused on delivering a best-in-class member experience by digitally engaging to help members find the right healthcare for their needs. This role reports to the Vice President of Concierge.

Concierge serves as the voice of Garner, so you should be passionate about customer service and helping people solve their problems, and translating that to larger-scale preventive solutions. In this role, you will become an expert on Garner’s product, standards, and the needs of our members. You will lead a team of Associates who serve as the first line of support for members. In your role as Supervisor, you will manage your team to better quality outcomes, ensure we hit our operating metrics, serve as an escalation point for complex member issues, and identify  trends that inform continuous improvement.

To ensure we have coverage for Garner users, the Customer Service Supervisor will be on call during business hours as needed. Current service operates weekdays during East Coast business hours, though that may change in the future as needs dictate. Garner is headquartered in NYC, but this position is remote.
