Upside Guide
Melbourne OR Bendigo based only
Remuneration: $67,500 + super. Penalty rates apply for early mornings, late nights, and weekend shifts.
We're looking for experienced and passionate customer support professionals to join our Melbourne & Bendigo based team as we continue on our journey to guide over a million Upsiders on the path towards feeling good about money.
We provide support from 6am-12am, 7 days a week through our super-powered in-app chat 'Talk to Us', driven by our 4 distinctive support values.
Your day to day involves injecting these values into each and every interaction and being the magic behind 'Talk to Us'. There may be be times you chat with Upsiders over the phone, but the vast majority of interactions are via written communication, so a strong writing ability is a must.
You'll learn to navigate, live and breathe our in-house built customer support software, which powers every interaction. Alongside this, you'll also be taught to use some more traditional systems for handling some of the more serious banking stuff
You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with a talented team of Ferocians who are constantly striving to improve our systems and the overall support experience. You are completely empowered to provide feedback and work alongside our wider team to improve our in-house systems, ultimately leading to a constantly improving and ever-evolving experience for Upsiders.
You'll need to be comfortable with working a rotating roster that includes early mornings, late nights, and weekends. It's not just about shift work though - our team regularly gets together for professional development with our end goal being becoming the most loved customer support team in Australia.
This full-time 'Upside Guide' role consists of 38 hours a week across 5 shifts (between Monday-Sunday). You'll work closely with our Customer Experience (CX) and Engineering teams to keep up to date on new features and learn to identify and manage customer complaints. You'll collaborate with your peers to deal with different tasks to keep the experience smooth, including:
- "What is this charge on my card?"
- "Here is my ID, can I please have an account?"
- "Why can't I send my money to this place?"
- "I need to buy a house, how do I go about that?"
(This is not an exhaustive list!)
The right people for this role will be excited to join a company with a strong culture of quality, continuous improvement, innovation, accountability, and good vibes! You'll pride yourself on attention to detail and a passion for helping and teaching others.
