• Comprehensive understanding of MI dashboards and performance reports using platforms such as Superset, Power BI, or equivalent.
• Provide detailed analysis of support function performance, customer behaviour, and operational efficiency.
• Own and enhance the AI-driven support system (e.g., chatbot or virtual agent), ensuring accuracy, learning loop feedback, and optimal functionality.
• Maintain and administer core customer support platforms, particularly Intercom, ensuring uptime, user configuration, and integration health.
• Collaborate with key stakeholders (Operations, Engineering, Vendors) to implement system improvements and analytics initiatives.
• Ensure accuracy and consistency of data across all reports and systems; act as a key gatekeeper for MI quality.
• Identify and implement automation opportunities to improve reporting and reduce manual effort.
• Document reporting methodologies, system processes, and data definitions for knowledge sharing and continuity.

• Detail-oriented, with a commitment to data integrity and continual process improvement.
• Comfortable working independently and influencing decision-makers through data and insight.

What we’re really looking for: ️

Someone with a genuine interest in Chip and is excited about being part of a fast-growing company and our mission to build the investment super app of the future.

Although we’re in the financial space, and under the scrutiny that comes with it, the current customer support team works well together, and even sometimes with a smile. We’re sure you’ve got the technical skills, otherwise, you would have stopped reading by now, so let us be clear on what will make us want to work with you.

We want a real person, with interests outside of work, to join our team. You could be a dancer, a gamer, a musician, a parent, a hockey fan, or even that one person that still writes Twilight fan-fiction. Doesn’t matter to us.

At the interview stages, we will be looking for empathy, eq, fun stories, and the ability to smile even when things are tough.
