Your mission is to;
- Be the fastest, clearest, warmest reply our customers receive, from first enquiry to long after they’ve landed home, and
- Carry everything around the deal so our closers can close, and no conversation ever goes cold.
---
What you’ll do
- Own the front line across WhatsApp, social DMs, email, phone and web chat. You respond fast, you respond clearly, and nobody waits.
- Support the close. Prepare quotations, booking forms, invoices and payment links, chase outstanding documents and deposits, and confirm every payment received.
- Handle after-sales enquiries end-to-end. Changes, reschedules, document requests, pre-departure questions and post-trip follow-ups. You see it through until the customer is satisfied.
- Keep the CRM honest. Every conversation logged, every status current, every follow-up scheduled. If a lead goes cold on your watch, you’ll know before anyone asks.
- Know what to solve and what to elevate. You resolve what you can on the spot and hand over cleanly to the Sales or Operations team when it needs them.
- Turn repetition into leverage. The questions you answer fifty times become templates, FAQs and quick replies, and what you hear from customers goes straight back to Sales and Marketing.

What we’re looking for
- Minimum 1 Year of Experience in Customer Service, Sales Support or Administration. Strong fresh graduates with excellent communication skills are encouraged to apply.
- Excellent written communication in Bahasa Malaysia and English. You can be warm, clear and professional in a chat window, which is harder than it sounds.
- Genuinely organised. You can hold dozens of live conversations at once and drop none of them.
- Detail-oriented with numbers and documents. Names, dates, passport details and payment amounts have to be right the first time.
- Calm and empathetic under pressure. When a customer is anxious or upset, you steady the situation instead of escalating it.
- Comfortable with everyday tools, and quick to learn new ones. WhatsApp Business, CRM systems and spreadsheets.
- A Malaysian home-grown talent: You possess the local heart and cultural fluency to serve our travellers with real understanding, not a script.
Nice to have:
- Experience working in the following industries: Leisure, Travel, Hospitality, and Services.
- Exposure to Umrah, Hajj, or Muslim-friendly travel products.
- Experience with CRM or WhatsApp Business API tools.
- Additional language ability (Arabic, Mandarin, or another market language).
- Startup mentality: bias to action, high adaptability, and operational discipline in a fast-evolving, high-growth environment.
