Technical Support Executive The Role:

We re looking for a Technical Support Executive to come and join us.

As Technical Support Executive, you ll be right in the middle of the action. You ll have the opportunity to deploy all of your diverse skill-sets and interests, ultimately helping customers to succeed with our products.

Technical Support Executive Key Responsibilities:

During onboarding, you ll support our Onboarding and Delivery team to assist with the technical aspects of account set-up.

Once customers are onboarded, you ll then be on-hand to reactively troubleshoot, resolve or triage technical challenges where our Support team asks for help.

You ll also work within our Data Support team to proactively keep an eye on some tech-focussed customer health KPIs to spot potential problems with our customers product implementations before they do.

You ll be able to speak two languages , as you will need to act as a liaison between our customers, our support team and our engineering team. You need to be able to communicate in engineering jargon and non-technical language, and also be able to translate between the two.

You ll soon find yourself becoming a bridge between support and engineering, pushing knowledge both ways, and giving the rest of the Support team the tools and knowledge they need to use or troubleshoot our products themselves without running into technical barriers.

Technical Support Executive You:

- We re looking for a highly organised problem-solver with a keen eye for detail

- You have experience working with customers, in either first-line or second-line support

- You have some background technical knowledge of web technologies and jargon such as APIs, Webhooks, SQL, HTML, CSVs and JSON

- You ll love a good spreadsheet, and be comfortable working with data

- Your written and communication skills will be first class, and you ll have an uncanny ability to explain technical concepts in a simple manner

- You ll be comfortable debugging within the browser console

- You ll excel at managing multiple threads of work

- You re independent and comfortable sometimes working with ambiguity

- While you won t be coding yourself very often, you ll find that having the ability to, say, write basic SQL, be comfortable on the command line or query an API, will empower you to quickly qualify potential problems, analyse how our products are being used or get an idea of how something works or could work, without having to rely on finding a developer/engineer with time to help you

Technical Support Executive Benefits:

We are largely an in-person team and we enjoy the collaboration that that brings. For the first 3 months you ll be in the office at least 4 days a week, learning from the rest of the team. After that you ll be in the office at least 3 days a week.

- 25 days holiday + bank holidays + your birthday off. Plus a buy and sell leave scheme and an extra day off after you ve been here 3 years

- 10% time: 10% of your time to learn something new

- Health Insurance: Full private health insurance provided

- Family Friendly Policies: Including 26 weeks full pay for maternity leave and flexible working

- Cycle-to-Work Scheme: Plus secure bike storage at our office

- Dog Friendly: If you ve got one, it's welcome at the office

- We equip everyone with a Macbook.
