Jobbeschreibung

Intro

A customer support role for insurance? We know what it sounds like, but that’s why we need you to help us change things. At Feather, our operations team are all experts in the insurance industry. They use our messaging platform to answer questions through text and schedule calls.

And the best part? There is no sales incentive. We want our team to be completely honest about what a person should do, even if it means not signing up for one of our plans if theirs is already the best fit.

When you start on our team, you’ll build your insurance knowledge from our seasoned operations team by watching them during calls, sending out messages with your team’s help, and practicing with other team members before slowly taking customer calls and messages. Your role will comprise of a mix of speaking with customers via email (Intercom) and video call (GoogleMeet) and data entry related tasks.

If you enjoy helping people, then you don’t need to look any further. Insurance is a really complex topic, and one that people are really confused about, so you’ll be guiding them to the best solution while using tech to make the experience more accessible and simple.

About Us

Feather was founded in 2018 by Rob Schumacher and Vincent Audoire, who both faced unexpected challenges navigating Germany’s complex insurance system—even as Europeans themselves. Frustrated by the bureaucracy and lack of clarity, they set out to create a better experience: one that was simple, accessible, and transparent.

Their journey began as part of the first Entrepreneur First Berlin cohort, a program dedicated to helping ambitious individuals build impactful companies from scratch. This foundation enabled them to turn their idea into a mission—making insurance radically easier for everyone.

That’s why we’ve built Feather to simplify every step of the insurance experience—from signing up and filing claims to asking questions or canceling a policy. Our goal is to provide honest, unbiased advice and empower people with the clarity they need to make confident decisions. And because insurance is still too complicated, we offer human support, helpful articles, and easy-to-use tools for those moments when people need a little extra guidance.

To date, Feather has helped people from over 150 countries get insurance online—and we’re growing fast.
