Responsibilities:
Quality, Compliance and Security:
· Ensure strict adherence to approved processes, work instructions, security requirements, data-protection rules and company policies.
· Apply effective quality controls, including the four-eyes principle for sensitive or manually prepared communications and transactions where required.
· Monitor ticket and contact quality, including accuracy, troubleshooting, worklogs, categorisation, routing, user communication and closure quality.
· Investigate recurring errors, compliance deviations and quality failures; perform or coordinate root-cause analysis and ensure sustainable corrective actions.

Importantly:
This position is a people-manager and service-ownership role.
The Team Leader is expected to understand the operation in sufficient depth to challenge, guide and support the team, while avoiding excessive delegation of core management responsibilities.
Asking for support is encouraged when needed, but risks, gaps and bad news must be communicated early.
The Team Leader remains accountable for confirming that agreed actions are completed and produce the expected result.
The Team Leader must be the visible point of leadership for the Japan team: proactive with the client and management, consistent with the team, uncompromising on security and compliance, and focused on sustainable service improvement.
