  • Use ZenDesk to document communications, analyze user problems, resolve basic issues, and facilitate payments on behalf of borrowers who call in.

  • Contribute to January’s contact center call procedures and processes, raising the bar for how we interact with borrowers.

  • Improve existing contact center processes, assist in evaluating inbound call workflows, efficiencies, and problems to identify the most effective use of resources to meet capacity goals.

  • Inform future product improvements by gathering user feedback through your use of January’s system and communication with borrowers. 

  • Understand and adhere to all federal and state collection and consumer protection laws and regulations, as well as our internal policies and procedures.

What You Bring to the Table

  • 2 - 3+ years of customer service experience with a proven track record of high performance

  • Comfortable with conversing on the phone about sensitive financial matters

  • Preference towards an empathetic and respectful tone while communicating verbally with consumers

  • Excellent negotiation and problem-solving skills

Nice to have, but not required

  • Experience with ZenDesk

  • Experience working in a startup or financial services company

  • Experience working in a remote or hybrid environment

As a New York City-based company, we are dedicated to transparent, fair, and equitable compensation practices that reflect our commitment to fostering an environment where all team members are valued and supported. We encourage individuals from all backgrounds to apply.

We are an equal opportunity employer committed to diversity and inclusion in the workplace. We do not discriminate based on race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability status, age, veteran status, or any other legally protected characteristic.
