You’ll play a key part in the onboarding journey, ensuring our customers receive their card payment terminals quickly and are supported in getting set up and trading with ease. You’ll also support internal teams, maintain day-to-day operational workflows, and look for smarter, more efficient ways of working wherever possible.

RequirementsKey Responsibilities
Proactively contacting customers to renew contracts and ensure continued service satisfaction.
Receiving inbound customer service calls and resolving queries efficiently and professionally.
Managing customer cancellations, identifying reasons, and supporting smooth account closures.

Support training and upskilling initiatives across the team when required.

What We're Looking For

Exceptionally organised with strong attention to detail.
Comfortable working across multiple systems and tools (CRM experience is a plus).
A confident communicator, both written and verbal.
Proactive, adaptable, and comfortable with changing priorities.
A natural problem-solver who takes ownership and gets things done.
