Job description
Job Title: Customer Communications and Web Content Specialist
What's the job?
We're on the lookout for a Customer Communications and Web Content Specialist who's ready to roll up their sleeves and join us on this grape-crushing journey. We need a forward-thinking individual who can juggle customer service, website content management and a bit of basic design. If you're a dab hand at Shopify, can create an attractive design in Canva, and can chat up a storm with our customers, we'd love to chat with you!
Key Responsibilities:
1. Web Content Master:
You'll manage the content that goes on our site like new products, web pages, and blog posts. And, if you've got a touch of the grape enthusiasm, you're welcome to join in and help create some of our content!
2. Customer Whisperer:
You'll answer customer inquiries that come through email, web chat, and social media, turning a potential wine crisis into another satisfied customer.
3. Design Dabbler:
You'll need some basic design skills and a creative eye to help make our content visually appealing. We already have an inhouse designer, but if you know your way around Canva, great!
4. Collaborative Rebel:
You'll work closely with our founding team, not afraid to speak up and share your ideas. After all, we're all about shaking things up and challenging the norm!
Perks of the Job:
- Full-time work from home – we trust you to do your job wherever you are!
- Flexible hours – we value work-life balance (and time to enjoy a glass of wine).
- A chance to be part of a fun, fast-growing company that's making waves.
- We’re crazy busy in the run up to Christmas, but when that last bottle leaves, it’s a nice long festive break for everyone!
- Tasty staff discount.
What we're looking for:
- A customer service maestro who can handle everything that comes their way.
- Basic design skills and a familiarity with Canva or similar software.
- Experience with content management especially using Shopify.
- A team player with a streak of rebellious spirit, ready to change the game in the wine industry.
(Note: Don't worry if you don't tick all the boxes. We value the willingness to learn and adapt more than anything. If you've got the grit and the passion, we'd love to hear from you!)
P.S Content Creators please note. We love your ambition to conquer the social media world, but this role is more about the behind-the-scenes magic of managing and creating our website content. So, if your dreams are filled with becoming an influencer and spending your days creating TikTok dances and Instagram reels, this role may not be your cup of...wine. However, if you're all about making our customers happy and our website look top-notch, then we can't wait to hear from you!
Who are we?
Hey there, we're Smashed Grapes! We're an e-commerce wine startup, but don't let that fool you - we're not your typical nose-in-the-air, swirl-and-sniff kind of wine enthusiasts. We're all about smashing the stereotypes of wine snobbery and making high-quality wines accessible to everyone, one bottle at a time.
What you’re walking into:
Just to give you a heads up - we're a scrappy team of five wine rebels, not a big, faceless corporation. If you're expecting a fancy HR department and a month-long onboarding program, you might want to keep scrolling. We're a startup in every sense of the word. We're learning, growing, and figuring things out as we go along. If you're the type of person who loves the thrill of a startup environment, the buzz of wearing many hats, and the idea of shaping a company from the ground up sounds like your idea of a fun challenge, then you might just be our kind of person. We're looking for someone ready to dive into the wine-filled chaos with us, raise a glass to the unknown, and be part of our grape-smashing journey!
