About the role

Olo is looking for a support enthusiast to join our growing Support team as a Customer Support Phone Specialist. The Customer Support team plays a crucial role within Olo's Customer Success team by providing the first level of support for our restaurant customers and their franchisees. Reporting to the Senior Customer Support Team Lead, you will assess and address phone calls with support requests that come into our Customer Support team while working with our team to improve documentation and processes to decrease escalations.
Olo's Support platform is available seven days a week, 7:00 am-12:00 am ET, but the primary shift time for this role will be 12:00 pm-9 pm ET Monday-Friday. Olo operates during holidays and weekends with limited rotating staff, which may also be required.
You can work remotely from anywhere in the U.S. or at Olo’s headquarters in Tribeca, NYC.

What You'll Do

  • Provide phone support to our customers during all phases of the Olo lifecycle as they adopt, use and manage Olo's products.

  • Gain familiarity with Olo's platform and technical support practices and procedures to be able to pinpoint when/where an issue occurred.
  • Quickly and thoroughly document phone call summaries in Zendesk tickets for each phone call and capture relevant information, including the restaurant details and resolution if provided.
  • Understand when issues are outside of the scope of our Phone Support team and connect customers to the necessary internal team or third party.
  • Identify emerging trends in recent calls to alert relevant teams of repeat problems. 

What We'll Expect From You

  • 2+ years experience providing inbound customer phone support or equivalent direct customer support with an emphasis on customer satisfaction 
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to come up with creative solutions while staying within scope.
  • Avid interest in the restaurant industry.

  • An attention to detail and ability to spot inconsistencies.
