You can ask open questions to understand their situation, listen and provide solutions - predominantly via our in-app chat with a small fraction of manual outbound calls (when requested by our customers) and emails.
- From time to time things are complex so a keen eye for detail and a high standard of work will really help in this team

- Most importantly - you live and breathe people and customers like we do.
