- Help expand our global support team and processes. Curious in the problems that we are present, creative in your approach and ideation, and scientific in your hypothesis testing / fine-tuning / roll-out of your initiatives.

**About you**:

- Customer service - since customer support specialists work directly with customers to solve end-user issues and answer questions, it's essential that you have strong customer service skills.
- Prior experience with chat / support software-i.e. Intercom/Zendesk. By nature, customer support specialists perform their day-to-day tasks on a computer. You must be able to easily operate a computer, especially in terms of checking and responding utilizing live chat services and software.
- Problem-solving skills - the ability to solve problems is just as integral to a chat agent's work as solid communication skills. When presented with a problem, chat agents must be able to find a solution calmly and efficiently, even if the customer is impatient or disgruntled
- Have a minimum of 1-3+ years of industry experience in B2B SaaS businesses, accounting professional services, training or education or customer support.
- Have great communication skills to be able to explain complex concepts clearly and efficiently and give consultative advice to help customers grow their performance.
- Have experience/passion for enabling businesses to grow and succeed.
- Ability to learn modern customer enablement SaaS and servicing tools to better understand, manage, and support customers.
- Have professional spoken and written English (fluency in other major languages is a plus but not required).

**Perks and benefits**:

- Flexible working hours
- Fully remote working arrangement
- 4 weeks annual leave **plus** 5 extra "Karbon Days" off a year
- Up to 10 wellness days off a year, because you don't need to be sick to have a day off
- Generous parental leave
- Learning, growth and development program
