Summary:
As a Host Support Advocate, you are a people person and creative problem solver who thrives in the fast pace of a startup. As a member of our Customer Experience Team, you will be responsible for creating a 5-star customer experience for Hosts (the folks who own and manage PadSplits). This isn’t your traditional customer support role - think more of client support, where you’ll get to know and form relationships with many of our customers. You’ll work on new problems each day and be challenged to think on your feet. Ideal candidates are comfortable working with autonomy, working with customers, and enjoying continuous learning. If you want to think creatively, solve challenging problems, and work on a highly collaborative team, this role is for you.

You Will:

  • Deliver exceptional customer service to hosts by responding to queries via email and phone. Questions may relate to policies, web/mobile products, member issues, financials, and more.
  • When presented with complex situations, educate Hosts on their options and help facilitate a solution
  • Serve as the “face” of PadSplit to this important customer group and help ensure they have a five-star experience and engender trust with PadSplit
  • Maintain up-to-date knowledge of our web product and policies, which are constantly evolving as we grow; use this knowledge to help troubleshoot Host issues and educate Hosts on new tools
  • Mitigate escalations with empathy, directness, and professionalism
  • Identify common problems and escalate them, along with possible suggestions for improvement, wherever possible
  • Share customer feedback so that products and services can be improved
  • Hold Hosts accountable to PadSplit standards and policies
  • Work with other team members and PadSplit departments to solve host challenges and get answers

You Are:

  • High energy and ability to adapt to change in a fast-paced environment
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills
  • Excellent time management and organizational skills
  • Critical thinker with the ability to solve complex problems
  • Energized by customer interactions and speaking to new people
  • Ability to balance empathy with being firm
  • Strong computer skills, tech savviness, and ability to quickly learn new technology
  • Able to learn new things and plug gaps to make things work
  • Self-starter
  • Team player with a “can-do”, collaborative attitude

Preferred Qualifications

  • 1-3 years of customer service, account management, training, or teaching experience with an excellent record of performance. B2C experience is a plus.
  • Tech experience is a plus
  • A real estate background is a plus
  • Experience working in a startup or similar environment is a plus
