Customer Service Manager — Corporate Travel | Brooklyn, NY
Compensation: $75,000–$80,000 base
Our client is an established corporate travel management company in Brooklyn hiring a Customer Service Manager to run its booking operation. You’ll lead a team of about 30 booking agents based in the Philippines and own everything between a traveler’s request and a confirmed itinerary — speed, accuracy, and follow-through. If you’ve run a service team by the numbers and know how to keep quality high when volume spikes, this is your seat.
What You’ll Do
- Oversee daily travel requests so bookings, changes, and cancellations are handled promptly and accurately
- Manage a ~30-person booking team in the Philippines — workloads, coverage, training, and performance
- Handle escalations and complex traveler issues personally when they need a senior hand
- Ensure agents follow each client’s travel policy, traveler preferences, and service standards
- Monitor response times, booking accuracy, follow-through, and service quality — and act on what the numbers show
- Build and tighten SOPs, training, and QA so quality stays consistent as the business grows
- Partner with account management to flag service trends and fix recurring client issues
What We’re Looking For
Must Have
- 3+ years managing a customer service, operations, or booking team, including people management responsibility
- Experience leading remote or offshore teams across time zones
- Track record running a team against service metrics — response time, accuracy, QA, SLAs
- Calm under pressure, with sound judgment on escalations
- Clear, direct communicator who holds people accountable
Nice to Have
- Corporate travel, TMC, airline, or hospitality experience
- Familiarity with GDS platforms (Sabre, Amadeus, Travelport)
- Experience managing Philippines-based or BPO teams
- Background with ticketing, workforce management, or QA tools
Why Join
- Real leadership scope — a 30-person team from day one
- Own the service engine of an established, growing company
- Your impact shows up directly in client satisfaction and retention
- Experienced team in a specialized niche
