About this role
The temperature drops. The calls pick up. And that's exactly when our customers need us most.
We're looking for people who enjoy a fast-paced day, don't get rattled when the phone keeps ringing, and genuinely like figuring things out for customers. You'll help our client's Home Heating customers with account and billing questions, service requests, and delivery-related needs.
This role is a great fit if you're curious, patient, reliable, and the kind of person who hears “I'm not sure what happened” and immediately wants to figure it out.
If you're looking for a quiet role with lots of downtime, or you're not a fan of back-to-back customer conversations, problem-solving on the fly, or working through the details; this one may not be for you. If you like a good challenge, take ownership of your work, and know how to make a customer feel looked after, come spend the winter with us!
