    ROLE OBJECTIVE

    In this role, your goal is to make sure that our customers adore us. How, you ask? By giving our customers the best service you can via phone, email, and chat. And possibly even sending a customer a bag of fake $100 bills.

    ROLE SUMMARY

    You will be joining a small but mighty team, so we hope you like to have a lot of responsibility and that your biceps are ready. You must be meticulous about making sure every customer gets exactly what they need while also spotting the general trends of what’s going on with our customers.

    You will be the face of Lily Bird to our customers and the voice of our customers to Lily Bird. That may sound like wizardry, but we’re pretty sure you’re up for the challenge.

    A SAMPLE OF WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING

    • Proactively check in with customers at specified times in their Lily Bird journey

    • Promptly (within 24 hours, ideally same day) respond to each and every customer request (whether made by phone, email, or chat) with the utmost care, empathy, and professionalism

    • Advise customers on the best product and service plan for their needs

    • Coordinate as necessary with the fulfillment team on specific issues and orders that come up. Be sure to bring your Bitmoji to this party.

    • Collaborate with the rest of the customer support team to address specific customer issues

    • As a company, our customer support hours are 8am-5pm Monday through Friday, plus a few hours on Saturday morning.

At that point most likely you will have EITHER Friday and Saturday off OR Sunday and Monday off. The weekend day you work (Saturday OR Sunday) would be a partial day only. We’re open to all this shifting around based on what is best for everyone on the team.
