Hi, Future Homie!
As a Homie, you’ll be part of an unstoppable team that puts customers first, embraces each day with excitement, and strives for excellence in everything you do. We’re revolutionizing the way small businesses manage their teams and grow their business. What this means for you is a shared passion for innovation and making a difference for the people we serve. So what do you say, will you join us on our mission to empower small businesses?
As a Homie, you are a bar raiser, this means you come with:
- 1+ years of achieving sales quotas (via phone support is a plus)
- 1+ years experience working in customer service (phone support, SaaS, or sales)
- Bilingual in English and Spanish is a plus
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
- Experience working or interacting with various web and mobile apps; you are considered "tech-savvy"
- Organizational skills and the ability to be at work on time for your scheduled shifts
- Enthusiasm to be a part of a dynamic and growing company full of opportunity and constant change
- The focus to ensure you are a self-starter who knows how to execute the assigned process.
As a Homie, you will make an impact by:
You’re a self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced and changing environment. You love talking to people and always put the customer first - whether via email, chat, or phone, your people skills and empathy shine through. You set big goals for yourself, work hard to accomplish them, and thrive in a performance-driven environment where your contributions are recognized.
As a Customer Care team member, you’ll work closely with our customers to help them get the most value from the Homebase product. You will be expected to ask discovery questions over the phone and via email to qualify customers’ needs, recommend the best solution, and upsell during every customer interaction. Qualifying customers and helping them select the best plan is 1/2 the responsibility. The second part of the role enables our customers’ success by ensuring they have completed the initial steps to customize their settings and get their team onboarded on the Homebase software. You will work closely with our Customer Support Enablement and Leadership team as they offer ongoing training to ensure you achieve all KPI’s.

Diverse perspectives empower us to build the best-in-class platform for small businesses and hourly shift workers.

About Us:
Our mission is to make hourly work easier for local businesses and hourly workers. Homebase currently serves more than 100,000 small (but mighty) businesses with everything they need to manage their hourly teams: employee scheduling, time clocks, payroll, team communication, hiring, onboarding, and compliance. Just don’t call us “Human Capital Management.” We have built tools for the busiest businesses, so owners and employees can spend less time on bullsh*t and more time on what matters. The Homebase team brings small business expertise from Intuit, Square, OpenTable, Yelp, Gusto, and First Data. Homebase is backed by leading venture investors Bain Capital Ventures, Baseline Ventures, Cowboy Ventures, Khosla Ventures, Plus Capital, and GGV Capital.
At Homebase, we value our differences, and we encourage all to apply. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, gender expression or identity, sexual orientation, national origin, citizenship, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status, or any other characteristic protected by law. Homebase is proud to be an equal opportunity employer and participant in the U.S. Federal E-Verify program. Accommodations will be provided during the hiring process if needed. Please advise us of any accommodations needed within your application to ensure fair and equitable access throughout the recruitment and selection process.
