Who's Who at TM
Operations
- Nathan Pikover - COO
Nathan is the Chief Operating Officer, responsible for Marketing, Sales, Operations, and Support.
- Emma D. - Operations Manager
Ruling over all the English Language Segment of Operations, Emma is our shining star of Ops. She has been with TM longer than she'd probably care to admit, so if there's something that should be known, Emma knows it! Fun, caring, and Kiwi, she's probably the friendliest face you'll see at TM. She also likes cucumbers.
- Michelle M. - Head of Support / Executive Account Manager
Michelle joined TM as a transcriber back in 2016 and has since served in various roles throughout TM. This allowed her to see the workings of the other sides of TM, mainly because she is nosy and just has to know all the stuff. This unique insight has led to Michelle taking on a new role at TM. She is now our Client Whisperer, responsible for the administration of the Support and Sales Support teams, while becoming the main communication focal point between the clients, Ops, Sales and Finance, and helping Nathan keep his stuff straight.
