About the Role

The Training Specialist has a key role in the end-to-end ownership of training initiatives within the facility support team. This role ensures that customer interactions are not only evaluated for quality but that the findings lead directly to process and training improvements. The Training Specialist will act as the single point of accountability for training quality, driving continuous improvement across support operations and elevating the standard of customer support at Clipboard Health.

By establishing a continuous feedback loop that includes auditing, root cause analysis, SOP enhancement, and agent coaching, this role will drive quality improvements from end to end. The successful candidate will work closely with support agents, operations, and quality assurance teams to proactively address quality issues and prevent recurrence through targeted training and knowledge-sharing initiatives. The Training Specialist will regularly collaborate with product managers, subject matter experts, and internal stakeholders to gather input, update content, and maintain the training with the latest process/product updates.

Familiarity with various training methods, including virtual classroom sessions, role-play, e-learning platforms, and tools such as Google Workspace, is crucial to success in this role.
