Product support Jedi

We’re looking for a tenacious, self-motivated and energetic people-person to help us support our growing client base in EMEA.

Role

You will be a part of a small but incredibly high-performing global team offering help to our B2B clients across two products (Award Force and Good Grants). You will communicate with colleagues and clients across countries, cultures and time zones on a daily basis.Our support is not restricted to email tickets only but also on phone calls and 1-1 Zoom meetings. Once trained, you will take up client meetings and help with issue resolution, best practices and product adoption. You’ll love this role if you’re self-motivated, genuinely enjoy talking with people and very good with technology. Lots of energy, problem solving skills and a sense of humour are a must!You’ll test and report bugs, put forth considered client feedback to product teams; always seeking to improve our products. When you’re not busy with clients, you’ll be happy to update support documentation or work on interesting side projects geared towards continuous improvement. We play startup every now and then — new tools implemented as experiments and our processes are always evolving. You’ll be part of this too. If you have a great idea, let’s test it out!
