Job Description
Associate Manager, Data Operations
MediaRadar, Inc.
Role Description As an Associate Manager, Data Operations, you will own the day-to-day performance of a team of Data Associates across our classification, attribution, and product-catalog workflows. You will sit where human judgment meets machine learning—turning targets into daily execution, coaching your associates from task-executors into data-driven critical thinkers, and acting as the first line of defense for quality, throughput, and SLAs. You will operate within the operating plan set by your Manager, run it relentlessly on the floor, and surface the insights and improvement ideas that make the plan better. Primary Responsibilities and Impact Drivers: - Supervise, coach, and develop a team of 15-20 Data Associates responsible for classification, attribution, and product catalog management. - Monitor and manage team performance against KPIs, including throughput, accuracy, and quality benchmarks. - Serve as the first point of escalation for workflow or process-related issues. - Conduct regular quality reviews and provide actionable feedback to ensure data accuracy and consistency. - Identify workflow inefficiencies and partner with managers, automation teams, and governance specialists to improve processes. - Coordinate team scheduling, task assignment, and workload balancing to meet daily and weekly targets. - Ensure compliance with governance standards, documentation, and reporting requirements. - Train new hires and ensure associates are up to date on classification guidelines, tools, and processes. - Report team status, coverage, productivity, and quality metrics to management. - Foster a culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement. - Proactively identify and address problems before they escalate, while recognizing opportunities for efficiency, automation, and quality improvements. Role Mandate - How you will move the needle: - Start your day in your team’s real-time utilization dashboards and queue metrics. - Read the data to anticipate bottlenecks before they form, check the health of in-flight work, and make rapid, high-judgment calls on how to reallocate associates across queues to protect SLAs. - Run quality reviews, give specific, example-based feedback, and coach your team to do root-cause analysis on their own defect and throughput data. - Partner with Quality, Training, Governance, and your peer Associate Managers to close process gaps and pilot improvements within your workflows. - Validate that your team’s output holds up in the real world. - Review throughput and quality, recognizing your best performers, and ensure your cross-trained, fungible team is positioned to clear tomorrow’s volume. Success Measures: - Accuracy: Team maintains 98%+ accuracy in ad classification, attribution, and catalog updates. - Productivity: Team consistently processes assigned workloads against defined productivity targets and SLA requirements. - Quality Assurance: Less than 2% of team output requires rework due to errors. - Team Development: Regular coaching and training lead to measurable improvement in associate performance. - Process Improvement: Implements at least two documented workflow or tool improvements per quarter. - Collaboration: Builds strong working relationships with peers in automation, governance, and data quality functions. Short-Term Deliverables (First 90 Days): - Baseline your team’s skill sets and identify single points of failure and coverage gaps across the media types you support. - Stand up a rigorous, data-driven feedback loop with your associates using specific defect examples and root-cause analysis ahead of weekly syncs. - Deeply understand your production queues and utilization metrics to optimize the balance between Core Production (value-add) and Administrative Shrinkage within your team. Long-Term Deliverables (6 months - 1 year and beyond): - Establish a seamless, highly efficient operational flow across time zones that eliminates geographical friction. - Successfully manage the operational integration of new datasets, media channels, or M&A expansions without linearly increasing headcount. - Successfully groom your top Team Leads to be ready for Manager-level responsibilities. Qualifications - Bachelor’s degree in business, operations, information systems, or a related field. - 4+ years of professional experience in data operations, data quality, content processing, or shared-services roles. - 2+ years directly leading or managing a team, with a proven ability to coach, develop, and hold people accountable. - Demonstrated experience managing high-volume, detail-oriented workflows to tight quality and SLA standards. - Data Fluency: You can use raw data (advanced Excel, PowerBI, Looker) to track performance, spot bloat, and drive behavioral change in your team. - You anticipate challenges, resolve issues fast, and balance daily tactical delivery with a steady drumbeat of continuous improvement. - You actively mentor and elevate associates, guide them through ambiguous operational change, build actionable growth plans, and cultivate critical thinkers rather than task executors. - You treat accuracy as the baseline, not the goal. - (Good to have) Industry Context: Experience in media intelligence, ad-tech, data tagging, taxonomy management, or content moderation is a strong plus.
