We have lofty goals (to make every dog in the country healthier, and every pet parent happier!) and we are looking for the right people to help us get there. This is an exciting opportunity to join a VC-backed, high-growth, e-commerce startup and have an outsized impact in an extremely fast-paced environment. Plus, you get to think about dogs all day!

  • Become an expert in our products, services, and internal systems to provide efficient and effective support to customers
  • Share insights from customer interactions with your colleagues including CX Managers and other cross-functional leaders; advocating for changes to improve our service, streamline our processes, and better serve our customers

Qualifications:

  • A minimum of 1 year of experience in a contact or call center, or a related field; experience working with D2C subscription businesses or in the pet industry is a plus
  • Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, and a high level of comfort in engaging with customers over the phone
  • A knack for building rapport with people quickly and easily
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to think on your feet
  • Proven ability to de-escalate and transform unhappy customers into satisfied advocates
  • Eager to learn, grow, and develop your professional skills

  • The ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment and balance multiple priorities
  • Believe in customer service as a growth driver and brand differentiator
  • Dog lovers are a plus!
