About The Role

As Fora's advisor base grows, so does the complexity and volume of flight-related support needs. We're looking for a Flights Support Lead to be the operational backbone of our flight support function, managing day-to-day support queues, proactively identifying and escalating issues, and ensuring our advisors have a seamless, high-quality experience.

• Ensure Ongoing Quality: Perform regular audits of the emergency phone line and flights inbox to evaluate support quality, identify areas for improvement, and develop targeted trainings to address recurring gaps.
• Maintain Data and Training Sources: Keep our internal information tooling up to date with new information, training updates, and live support resources so advisors always have accurate, real-time guidance.
• Partner Communication: Proactively reach out to partners to flag support trends, recurring issues, or patterns that require attention.
• Webinar Coordination: Set up and manage webinar logistics, including registration instructions and advisor-facing communications.
• Fraud Management: Monitor for and respond to fraudulent activity, escalating appropriately and documenting cases for tracking and reporting.
• Advisor Feedback Monitoring: Monitor the flight partners feedback page, flag negative feedback, and proactively reach out to affected advisors to resolve issues before they escalate.
