  • Communicate effectively with internal stakeholders to advocate for customers needs
  • Maintain help centre and internal knowledge bases to ensure our customers and team have up-to-date and helpful information
  • Be resourceful and self-self driven to accomplish your tasks
  • Be a reliable team player working in a shared queue

You're a great candidate if you have...
