At Optiom, service isn't a department — it's the moment our promise becomes real for the people who count on us. We're looking for a Director, Service Delivery to bring single, accountable leadership to the teams who deliver on that promise every day: Client Care, Partner Support, and our Inside Sales / Insurance Advisor team.

This is a newly created role reporting to our VP, Operations. You'll be the leader accountable for running these functions as one metrics-governed service delivery operation: average time to answer, abandon rate, average call length, and outcomes tracked and actively managed, not just observed after the fact. At the same time, you'll be building and scaling a producing Inside Sales / Insurance Advisor team, with the coaching infrastructure to grow it responsibly.

If you manage by the numbers and by the relationship — comfortable in a scorecard one minute and coaching a front-line leader the next — we want to talk to you.

You Bring

- 8+ years of progressive leadership experience in contact centre, service delivery, or insurance/brokerage operations, including direct accountability for call centre KPIs (average time to answer, abandon rate, average call length, first-contact resolution, or equivalent)
- Experience leading multiple functions or teams concurrently (10+ direct/indirect reports), with accountability for service quality and performance outcomes
- Experience leading or scaling an inside sales, insurance advisor, or other producing sales team: this is a distinct piece of the mandate alongside service leadership
- Direct or adjacent experience in P&C; insurance, brokerage, MGA, insurance contact centres
- Post-secondary education in business, insurance,



or a related field — or equivalent demonstrable experience

Bonus Points For

- Experience with contact centre workforce management or telephony platforms (e.g., NICE, Genesys, Five9, Talkdesk)
- Experience in a dealer-distribution, embedded-finance, or extended warranty / vehicle service contract model
- CIP/FCIP designation, or an active general insurance licence (Level 1/2, CAIB)
- Experience in a premium financing, collections, or fintech-adjacent service setting
