Melbourne, Australia Mercury Full time

Customer Support Specialist - APAC

Mercury is building a complete finance stack for startups. Since we launched Mercury in 2019, our customer base has grown to over 200,000 startups and small businesses from all around the world.

Our Support team is expanding to match this growth and we are setting up teams in EMEA and APAC to provide 24 hour cover for our clients. As part of this, we're looking to bring someone smart onto our Customer Support team to help us out.

As a member of our Customer Support team, you'll make sure our users are charmed by warmth and competence when they have questions or needs that aren't being met by our product. You'll radiate intelligence while exercising your best human qualities, like compassion and empathy, even in the face of frustration.

You'll need to understand how our product works in detail. Banking* has a lot of moving pieces, so this is harder than it might seem. Finding efficient, elegant solutions for problems stemming from the oft-convoluted U.S. financial system isn't always easy, but if you're good at your job, our users will never know it.
- Mercury is a financial technology company, not a bank. Banking services provided by Choice Financial Group, Column N.A., and Evolve Bank & Trust, Members FDIC.

Here are some things you'll do on the job:

- Teach customers how to use our product (hopefully most of it is self-explanatory), and translate user confusion into product suggestions
- Identify the systemic flaws that lead to user problems
- Work with our engineering team to find and squash bugs
- Communicate our users' needs to our partner banks and work with them to improve their products and processes
- Write help articles and FAQs
- Learn our internal tools and figure out how to improve them
- Put in place processes to make your job more efficient
- Help with other compliance and customer tasks
- Create and sustain warm relationships with our users
- Help build out the customer support and ops infrastructure at Mercury

You should:

- Have 3+ years of experience in a Customer Experience / Customer Support role
- Experience with Zendesk is a plus
- Consistently exercise empathy
- Exude competence
- Always seek to answer the question behind the question
- Understand how to translate convoluted banking or engineering terminology into clear, human user communication
- Enjoy thinking about how to automate as much of your job as possible
- Keep a clean, ordered inbox
- Stay calm and collected while working on ten things at once
- Feel confident talking with startup folks in person, over chat, or on the phone
- Use creativity while working within difficult constraints
- Show kindness in the face of unpleasantness (our customers generally are really great, but they can get passionate when it comes to their businesses)
- And ideally, have a love for language

The total rewards package at Mercury includes base salary, equity (stock options), and benefits.

Our target new hire base salary ranges for this role are the following:

- Australia (any location): AU$79,800 - AU$99,750
