Job description

Who We Are

The Farmer’s Dog was born from a mission to change the landscape of pet health, providing dogs and their humans with honest, smart, and simple care. We’re starting by radically improving the multi-billion dollar pet food industry, replacing bags of highly-processed pellets with a personalized subscription service that sends complete and balanced, freshly-made dog food directly to customers’ doors. Our ultimate goal is to create innovative, delightful and personalized experiences across all aspects of pet care, and we believe our direct-to-consumer business model, holistic approach to growth, and dynamic culture uniquely position us to shepherd this backwards industry into the future.

To date, The Farmer’s Dog has delivered over 1 billion meals nationwide and raised significant funding to help us build a company as healthy as the dogs who are eating those meals. Join us as we continue to develop ways of bringing peace of mind to customers, health to their companions, and much-needed change to the way people feed and care for their pets.

What We Stand For and Where You’ll Come In

Are you a dog person who has always thought that there was a better way to deliver service - simply, easily and with love - just like our food? Do you have a desire to engage in meaningful conversations while helping our customers improve the quality of their dog’s lives? Are you passionate about the idea of disrupting the pet food industry and providing healthy human grade food for dogs?

Our Customer Experience Department (CX) is looking for people who will be the eyes and ears of our customer service organization. We need people who can consistently deliver a positive, world class customer experience via phone, email, and text. Our goal is to resolve customer queries with fast, friendly, and courteous service.

Service can include responding to inquiries regarding billing, delivery status, account information, updating payments methods, nutritional information and general questions about subscriptions.

This opportunity is a full-time role of 40 hours per week. Candidates must be able to commute to and work from our Nashville office on-site.

• Respond to customers in a timely manner with thorough and accurate information.

• Work independently with customers but also be able to share information about these conversations with your colleagues, e.g. People Leads/Managers and Cross-Functional Leads.
• Comply with all company and department policies and procedures.

We're Excited About You Because

• You provide service with a human touch to each and every customer you help.
