What you will do
Answer customer queries via several incoming channels, including phone calls, email and social media platforms.
Develop and implement standard procedures for query handling in conjunction with the rest of the customer experience team to ensure consistent, quality service - including creation of documentation, canned responses, etc.
Assist in identifying recurring queries that require alternative solutions (e.g. improved messaging/ user education on the SnapScan website, setting up and proactively monitoring certain error notifications etc.)

Perform technical investigations and troubleshooting in order to resolve customer queries
Assist with customer eCommerce integration setups, education, and support.
Liaise with the rest of the customer experience and operations teams and assist in performing team duties where required, including identifying possible fraudulent activity on the network, screening new merchant accounts and other sales administration.
