What You’ll Do

- Answer inbound customer and consumer calls: Be the friendly, competent first point of contact for homeowners and tradies using the platform.
- Follow the daily playbook: Morning system sweep, core-hours live ops, afternoon follow-ups, and end-of-day handover notes.
- Onboard & train: Walk current and renewing customers through the platform, showing them how to set up profiles, respond to jobs, and use features that drive results.
- Stay connected: Keep in regular touch with your portfolio of customers, celebrating wins and stepping in early if usage drops off.
- Coach for success: Share best practices and practical tips tailored to each tradie’s business so they feel confident using the platform.
- Problem-solve with empathy: Handle frustrations calmly,



turning tricky situations into positive experiences.
- Spot risks early: Use data and engagement trends to see which accounts might need extra care before they become a churn risk.
- Keep records clean: Log every interaction in HubSpot with clear, factual notes so the team can act on accurate information.
- Be the customer’s voice: Bring feedback and insights from your interactions back into the business to improve our product and processes.
- Manage reviews and feedback: Respond to Trustpilot and ProductReview feedback during quieter periods.

Work Smarter with AI

- Relationship-focused: You enjoy building rapport and trust, not just ticking boxes.
- Teacher at heart: Patient, clear, and enthusiastic about showing people how things work.
- Empathetic & calm: You can handle frustration without taking it personally, and guide people toward solutions.

- Organised & thorough: You document everything, juggle multiple accounts, and never let follow-ups slip.




- Curious & data-aware: You notice patterns in usage and act on them to help customers succeed.

- Experience using CRMs (HubSpot preferred), ticketing systems, and call software (Aircall a plus).
- An interest in sales and negotiation — inside sales only, working warm existing accounts.
- Strong written and verbal English - your notes are as good as your phone manner.
- Familiarity with AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, or built-in CRM AI features) - or a clear willingness to learn.
- Comfortable conducting structured calls that blend support with consultative coaching and account optimisation.
- Bonus: background in trades, home services, property, or marketplace environments.

What's In It for You
