About The Role
As Fora's advisor base grows, so does the complexity and volume of flight-related support. We're looking for a Support Manager, Flights to own the quality of our flight support function end to end: the person who resolves complex advisor needs, moves us from reactive to proactive support, and raises the bar on how advisors experience the Flights Desk.
Reporting to the Head of Flights, this role will be the primary decision maker on complex advisor escalations, the owner of support quality and SLAs across our channels, and the driver of proactive improvements to how we serve advisors, including stratifying support based on advisor status. The Support Manager, Flights will partner closely with our offshore Flights Desk team, Product Operations, and our flight partners. Deep GDS knowledge is the crux of this role. This is a highly visible, hands-on role for someone who thrives on ownership, variety, and building operational excellence in a fast-moving environment.
Key Responsibilities
Own Advisor Escalations: Serve as the primary owner and final escalation point for complex and sensitive flight-related cases, making the call on high-stakes advisor needs.
Own Support Quality and SLAs: Own the quality and responsiveness of flight support across Front, Intercom, and our emergency phone line, running regular audits to evaluate quality, identify gaps, and hold the function to a consistently high standard.
Drive Proactive Support: Move the function from reactive to proactive, including building support that is stratified by advisor status, and get ahead of recurring issues before they become escalations.
Train and Level Up the Offshore Team: Partner with our offshore Flights Desk team to train, upskill, and improve everyday support quality, and develop targeted trainings to close recurring gaps.
Build the Knowledge Base: Keep our internal tooling, documentation, and live support resources accurate and current so advisors and the desk always have real-time guidance, reducing re-escalation to HQ and Product.
Expand and Improve Emergency Support: Own an expanded booking and emergency support experience, auditing the current offerings, identifying gaps, and implementing solutions.
Partner Cross-Functionally: Work closely with Product Operations as our self-booking tooling evolves, and coordinate with Communicatio
