You are the front door. When a customer contacts Mercha, you are the first person who sees it, and how that goes decides whether they come back.

This is not a ticket-closing job. You own the inbound queue end to end, you personally close revenue nobody else in the business is working, and you are measured on customer satisfaction as a headline number the same way our sales team is measured on quota.

About Mercha

Mercha does branded merchandise properly: design, production, warehousing and distribution for companies who want their brand to show up well. We hold client stock, we run event and launch logistics, and we ship to their people wherever they are.

Two Facts That Explain How This Business Grows

- Heidi Health came to us as a single $1,410 web order. It is now $471,000 across 26 orders.
- Airwallex started as a set of abandoned checkouts. It is now a $2.5M global project in pipeline.

Neither happened because of a clever pitch. They happened because every order worked, every query got answered properly, and nobody had a reason to look elsewhere. That is the job you are applying for.

What you own

- Inbound volume across every channel

You Manage The Inbound Queue End To End

- : every enquiry, issue and reorder that arrives in the shared inbox.
- Live chat: answered promptly, with a real answer rather than a holding message.
- Inbound calls: picked up, resolved where you can, logged either way.
- Order confirmation calls: you call and confirm every order placed, before it goes to production.

Your job is to resolve what can be resolved and route what cannot, quickly and to the right person. Tier 1 issues escalates through Nat as the named Account Manager and never sit in a queue behind lower-priority work. Knowing the difference, without being told each time, is a large part of doing this job well.

- Converting the demand the sales team does not work

Not every buyer belongs in a managed sales lane, and that does not make them worthless. Non-ICP customers and one-off transactional purchases still represent real revenue, and our Account Executives are deliberately not spending time on them.

That demand is yours to convert. You quote it, you close it, you get it ordered, and you carry it through order confirmation, delivery and everything in between.





Nobody else is doing this. Without you it is revenue we leave on the table. It also means a measurable portion of Mercha's revenue comes directly from your work, which is not true of most customer success roles.

- Reactive operational support

You support Katre and the operations team when they need it, and you support our trunk customers on the operational side: deliveries, events, and the day-to-day requests that come with holding a client's stock.

Nothing is formally handed to you when a deal closes. This is reactive support where the business needs it, which means you need to be comfortable picking up work that has no owner and finishing it.

- Administration and record accuracy

Accurate records and clean data in HubSpot, and the operational follow-through that keeps sales and account management moving. Unglamorous. The whole thing falls over without it.

How we measure you

CSAT is your headline number. It is not a soft metric here and it is not a nice-to-have. A customer who has a good experience orders again, and a repeat customer is worth many times a one-and-done buyer. Your satisfaction score is the leading indicator of repeat purchase, and therefore of revenue. Treat it as your number.

Targets are set with you in your first fortnight against a measured baseline, not guessed at before you start.

What a week looks like





- Queue is triaged and cleared daily. You are not carrying yesterday's email into tomorrow.
- Every order placed gets a confirmation call before production.
- Quotes for one-off and non-ICP enquiries go out same day where the information allows it, and get followed up rather than filed.
- Escalations reach Nat or the relevant Account Manager with the context already assembled, not as a forwarded email chain.
- HubSpot reflects reality at the end of each day.
- Operational requests from Katre or a trunk customer get picked up and closed out.

What we need you to already have

- Two or more years in a customer-facing role in a business where orders had to physically arrive: merchandise, promotional products, print, apparel, e-commerce, wholesale, logistics or similar. You need to understand that a delivery date is a promise.
- Genuine operational discipline. You work from a system, not from memory. You finish what you pick up. You can be handed a queue with no process and impose one. This is the single most significant thing we are hiring for, and it is where we will push hardest in interview.
- Comfort selling. You can quote, follow up, handle a price objection and ask for the order. You do not need to have carried a quota, but you need to be someone who closes rather than someone who waits.
- Phone confidence. A material part of this role is outbound confirmation calls and inbound calls. If you would rather email, this is not your role.
- Clear written English. Concise, warm, unambiguous. You will write hundreds of customer messages a week and they represent our brand.
- CRM literacy. HubSpot experience is ideal. Any serious CRM plus a willingness to learn ours properly is acceptable. "I updated it when I remembered" is not.
- Judgement about priority. You can tell the difference between urgent and loud, and you elevate the first without being prompted.

Nice to have

- HubSpot Service Hub, live chat and shared inbox experience.
- Aircall or a comparable cloud telephony platform.
- Experience with warehoused or consigned client stock.
- Event and activation logistics.
- Experience being the first or only person in a support function, with the process built
