Head of Workforce Management Marketplace Experience

YOUR MISSION

We are looking for a Head of Workforce Management (WFM) Marketplace Experience to own the end-to-end planning engine behind Glovos global customer support operation; covering demand forecasting BPO staffing real-time operations and agent productivity at scale across all markets.

You will be operating in one of the most analytically demanding fast-moving environments in Glovo. The team youll inherit is capable but underdeveloped and the role comes with three transformation opportunities: moving forecast accuracy from directional to reliable; transforming the team from regional generalists into specialist tracks; and building stronger foundations in tooling process and analytics to take WFM to the next level at Glovo..

The profile we need has been forged in high-velocity data-intensive environments: someone whose instinct is to build a model not read a report; who fixes the planning system rather than managing the symptoms of a bad one; and who has a track record of building or rebuilding a function not just running one. If your background is exclusively traditional BPO this role will be a stretch.

THE JOURNEY

• Own Glovos end-to-end demand forecasting: build short- and long-term models from first principles using statistical and ML-based methods set the accuracy benchmark and report performance transparently to non-WFM leaders.

• Translate forecasts into staffing plans across all BPO locations time zones languages and channels; balancing SLA delivery with cost efficiency and productivity targets.

• Hold BPO partners accountable to staffing plans and real-time compliance through structured governance data-driven reviews and commercial levers where needed.

• Build Glovos real-time management capability from the ground up: define team roles tooling coverage model and escalation protocols that allow the team to act without constant escalation.

• Own the full WFM performance picture: forecast accuracy schedule adherence occupancy AHT cost-per-hour and total cost-to-serve. Not from a dashboard but from first-principles diagnosis.

• Partner with Marketplace Experience teams Finance Product and Service Delivery Operations to translate WFM complexity into decisions that stick and use the scale of this operation to influence planning standards globally.

Qualifications :

WHAT YOU WILL BRING TO THE RIDE

• 7 years of experience in WFM leadership roles with a track record of owning forecasting scheduling and/or real-time operations in high-growth high-complexity environments.

• Past experience working in tech marketplace or similarly fast-paced environments; not exclusively in traditional BPO or contact centre settings.

• Hands-on quantitative capability: you build and validate forecast models yourself using statistical or ML-based approaches (Python R or equivalent). You do not delegate all modelling to analysts.

• Track record of building or rebuilding a WFM function and not just inheriting and maintaining a mature one. You know what it takes to create structure where it didnt exist.

• Excellent communication skills. You can translate complex WFM methodology into clear credible language for senior non-technical stakeholders.

• Fluent in English is required; Spanish is a plus.

• Based in or willing to relocate to Barcelona Spain.
