The projected start date for this role is January 2023. This is a hybrid position located in Austin, Texas.
Your mission:
Your mission is to help customers have an excellent experience with Wise via phones and emails. This isn’t your normal call center – we do things differently – and our Customer Support Associates are here to help millions more potential customers save money by using Wise!
Provide world-class customer support via email and phone channels for English speaking customers all over the world
Understand that making a customer happy is crucially important to a business’s success and you make that your goal for every contact
Be creative, friendly, and solution-oriented with customers and colleagues
Understand the need to meet expectations, rise above them, and go that extra mile for customers
A bit about you:
You have exceptional verbal & written English skills – Phone and email contacts are the main responsibility for this role, so clear communication is key, and we’ll be evaluating yours all the way through from your application to the final interview
You’re flexible. Open to working days, evenings, and occasional weekend shifts. While your scheduling preferences are taken into consideration, the scheduling requirements can change based on our customer’s needs, so we can’t guarantee you your preferred shift and shifts can change over time. For the North America teams, most shifts fall between 8am – 7pm CT, and each agent works 2 weekend days per month (your first month and a half would be a 8:00am-4:00pm schedule while you complete your initial paid CS training)
You’re organized. You’re methodical in your approach, with a solution-oriented mindset and the ability to multitask. Your lead will help you develop and remove blockers if they can, but they won’t stand over your shoulder. Your Lead will be entrusting you with the autonomy to meet and exceed your performance metrics and also deliver a great customer experience
You’re cool under pressure. You take charge in challenging situations and you keep your composure if things get tense – a fast-paced, ever-changing environment is where you thrive
You’re a team-player. You’re straight up and honest. You’re able to own up to your mistakes and you follow through when you say you will.
You’re growth-oriented. You understand that an open feedback culture is there to help you grow. You crave information and love learning new things. You challenge ideas, not people. You see every challenge as a learning opportunity and you’re adaptable, learning new systems and processes quickly
You’re technically inclined. You’re quick behind the keyboard, with a typing speed of at least 35 words-per-minute and you can learn new software and systems quickly – Knowledge of CRM tools (like Zendesk, Twilio, or similar) that support phone and email channels would be helpful
You’re ideally someone who has worked in customer support before (preferably in banking or finance), but we’re willing to work with the right person, whatever your experience. We’re looking for genuine people who work hard and love helping others, so if that sounds like you, tell us why you’re a great fit!
Most importantly – you understand that having a great working culture is everyone’s responsibility, so you treat everyone with respect, you always give a helping hand, and you let our values guide you
Also…
You’ve got at least a high school diploma or GED equivalent
Any additional languages are always welcome!
Must already be legally authorized to work in the US, we cannot provide Visa sponsorship for this role
