In this role, you'll play a key part in driving revenue and accelerating conversions through real-time chat and calls interactions.

This is a dynamic opportunity for someone who is both a product expert and a strategic seller—someone who can deeply understand customer pain points, offer consultative solutions, and influence purchasing decisions during every touchpoint.

• Proactively upsell and cross-sell relevant product features that match the customer’s business goals

• Meet or exceed chat-to-close rate targets, monthly revenue quotas, and other performance KPIs

• Respond to inquiries within 30 seconds via chat and 4 hours via email, delivering speed and precision that drives customer confidence

• Capture and follow up on opportunities surfaced through support interactions, feature requests, and product updates

• Be the customer’s internal advocate, collaborating with Product and Sales to reduce friction and improve experience

Minimum Qualifications

• Have at least 1- 2 years of experience working in a customer-facing role (support, sales, retail, or similar)—you love helping people and guiding conversations.

• Organized, proactive, and comfortable juggling multiple conversations at once in a fast-paced environment.

• Customer centric - working to understand the questions that customers ask to help them resolve their business.  

• Clear and confident written communication skills, especially in live chat or email settings.

• Adaptable with the ability to pick up new technologies, assess situations quickly, and find smarter ways to achieve goals.
