Role Summary:

• Own the contact-centre fallback interlock: triggers, invocation authority, restoration, and comms to contact-centre leadership.
• Own SLO and error-budget policy per agent service and the drills programme (fallback, escalation, rollback, game days).
• Chair post-incident reviews and drive corrective actions and systemic findings into the troubleshooting manual and backlog.
• Lead, roster, and develop the AO team across HQ and offshore; own on-call discipline, fatigue management, and shift handover quality.
