We’re looking for Customer Support Associates to join our Customer Support team at Wise! You'll support our English-speaking customers, in a call center-like environment, from our Tampa office! We are seeking candidates that are comfortable with a high volume of phone calls and demonstrate adaptability to changes in a  fast-paced environment. The ideal candidate should be flexible and able to embrace new challenges.

 

Wise has already pioneered new ways for people to transfer money across borders and currencies. Our customers can manage their money with the world’s first platform to offer true multi-currency banking and we’re on a mission: to make money without borders the new normal. We’ve got 13 million customers across the globe and we’re growing fast.
You’ll receive a competitive package including a starting salary of $21.50 per hour + Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) in a profitable company + best in class benefits! (more info below )

 

The projected start date for this role is June 10th. This is a hybrid position located in Tampa and NOT fully remote. During the probationary period, you will be expected to be in office every day. Once the probationary period has ended, the expectation is that you are in office at least 3 days a week.


Your mission is to help customers have an excellent experience using Wise. In Customer Support, we focus the majority of our time providing world-class customer support for our English-speaking customers via phones, chats, and emails. At Wise, our customer support teams understand that making a customer happy and resolving their issue is crucially important to a business' success and you make that your goal for every contact. You’ll support that mission by:

  • Problem solving: Investigating issues with payments, account set-up and login, and providing general support to our customers. 

  • Communicating: We communicate with the majority of our customer via phone, this allows us to resolve their issue in an efficient manner.  We need to communicate not only with our customers, but also with our own internal teams to solve problems by being creative, friendly, and solution oriented.

  • Teaching: We need to educate our customers that may be new to Wise on how to get the most out of our products.

  • Learning: We need to be up to date with our own products to be able to teach our customers about new updates and features.

  • Delivering feedback: Sometimes we get feedback from our customers and it’s our job to pass that feedback along to the proper internal teams. We also receive feedback from our peers and leadership to help us improve our performance and development.

Some of your time is spent on administrative tasks to improve our processes and your development. These include:

  • Participating in team meetings, participating in ongoing training sessions, 1 on 1 meetings with your lead, and assessing quality reviews

  • Reviewing and discussing your performance as it pertains to your metrics. Performance metrics include but are not limited to quality assurance, handling time, phone call pick-up rate, and adherence.

While we consider your scheduling preferences, shifts may change based on customer needs, so we cannot guarantee your preferred shift (Note: Your first 6 weeks will be a 9:00-5:00EST  schedule while you complete your paid CS training)

  • Communication: Phone and chats are the primary responsibilities for this role, emails are secondary, so communication skills are key. This includes exceptional verbal & written English skills, active listening, speaking in a friendly and professional tone, and conveying information in an easy to understand manner.

  • Empathy and conflict resolution: It's important to empathize with customer’s situations and remain patient throughout the conversation. Occasionally, you may encounter irate or dissatisfied customers. Strong conflict resolution skills help defuse tension, address concerns, and find mutually beneficial resolutions.

  • Time management: Efficiently managing your time in an ever changing environment ensures you handle customer contacts promptly and effectively. This involves prioritizing tasks, adhering to your schedule, and providing timely resolutions to exceed performance metrics and deliver a great customer experience

  • Adaptability: Wise serves customers and supports products all over the globe, so things change quickly and often, and adaptability is vital. You take ownership over your work and you see every challenge as a learning opportunity, using all the tools and resources at your disposal to investigate issues and find solutions.
