We are actively seeking a dedicated and articulate Customer Service Representative to join our growing remote support team. In this full-time, work-from-home role, you will be the first point of contact for our valued customers, serving as the voice of our brand. You won't just be answering phones; you will be building relationships, resolving complex inquiries, and ensuring that every interaction leaves a positive, lasting impression.

This position is ideal for self-starters who are tech-savvy, organized, and eager to grow their career in a stable, supportive, and 100% remote environment. We value communication, integrity, and a customer-first mindset.

• Order Processing: Assist with placing new orders, processing returns, issuing refunds, and managing subscription modifications in accordance with company policy.

• Knowledge Base Maintenance: Actively use and contribute to the internal knowledge base. Flag outdated articles and suggest new content based on trending customer questions.

4. Collaboration & Continuous Improvement

• Feedback Loop: Act as the voice of the customer by gathering and reporting feedback to the product and development teams. Identify recurring pain points or bugs and report them through the appropriate channels.

• Team Meetings: Participate in weekly virtual team huddles, training sessions, and one-on-one coaching with team leads via Zoom or Microsoft Teams.
