Own the Agent Network Across Your Regions You own the agent partner relationship across two of Airspace’s four U.

S. regions. That includes onboarding new agent partners, running ongoing performance conversations, maintaining the scorecard, and partnering with the Director, Network Operations, and Procurement to decide next steps when a partner isn’t meeting standard. The Regional Network Managers in your two regions own their region’s overall health and weigh in on judgment calls that affect regional strategy, things like whether agent capacity in a market is adequate, or whether a new agent partnership changes how a region is covered. The day-to-day agent relationship is yours to run. Onboarding runs through you and Procurement directly. You handle the operational side, credentialing, documentation, system setup, and setting initial performance expectations, while Procurement manages the contract. The scorecard itself is built and maintained by the Lead, US Network Strategy & Operations: you apply it on a regular review cadence across both of your regions, use it to decide which partners need a closer look, and send field-level context back so it stays accurate over time. Contract rates are not part of this role. In practice, this means you’re the one who notices a partner’s numbers slipping before it becomes a service problem, has the conversation about what needs to change, and follows up to see whether it does. When it doesn’t, you partner with the Director, Network Operations, and Procurement to decide next steps, and let the relevant RNM know once it’s resolved.
