Who Boundless Is

Boundless, a Seattle-based company specializing in U.S. immigration services, is seeking an experienced and customer-centric leader to join our team as Director of Customer Operations for our Philippines organization. We have ~300 full-time employees across the Philippines and the U.S. (with 200+ in the Philippines), and have been featured in The New York Times, NBC News, and Univision. Our commitment to excellence has earned us an A+ Better Business Bureau rating and the 2018 "Business of the Year" award. As we continue to grow and invest in our Philippines Operations, we are looking for a strong Operations leader to lead the largest team at the company.

Your Mission

As the Head of our Philippines Customer Operations business, you will lead and manage our passionate and rapidly growing (the team has grown from 35 to 210 over the past two years) Customer Success and Operations teams in Manila and Cebu. You will drive critical business decisions by tracking, analyzing, and evaluating operational processes for both our business and customer segments. Your role will engage with internal stakeholders to drive operational effectiveness, enhance performance, and ensure a great customer experience. You will effectively improve operational processes, partner with cross functional team members, and execute process changes while being customer centered and a strong people leader.

You possess the capability of extracting information from various sources, compiling and sharing information, and developing plans for improvement. You have a passion for data, efficiency, process improvements, and are adaptable to change in a fast-paced organization with a high level of execution. You embody the concept of “ownership” and instill it in your managers, team leads, and individual contributors. This is not a task and execution role—you are responsible for coming up with and delivering on the vision that best helps achieve the ambitious goals of the company. You are also motivated by performance-driven success and the impact Boundless is making on our customers.

In this role, you will work closely with functional executives across the company, including the CEO, to create and deliver the best customer experience in the industry.
