Overview

Launched in 2013, Akkroo is a fast-growing, London headquartered B2B SaaS company, at the forefront of a new, emerging category that helps businesses bridge the gap between exhibiting at live events, and their sales, Marketing Automation and CRM solutions.

We’ve spent the last 4 years developing the platform, building an incredible international customer base and laying the foundations for further global growth. After reaching $1M in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) and raising a preSeries A round in 2016, we are growing and on the journey to $10M ARR and beyond.

About the Role

  • This is a part time, remote position ideally based in West Coast of the US (or working the hours of 12:30pm to 5:30pm PST).
    You will have some time overlap with our other US-based Customer Champion, who works East Coast hours.
  • Our ideal team mate will be familiar with working with customers in adopting and troubleshooting B2B software, have an empathetic attitude to customer success and is someone who believes in our vision for better events.
  • You’ll be part of our larger, UK-based Customer Experience & Support team, who supports customers globally through delivering a world-class customer service, crafting documentation, troubleshooting bugs, customer training, and go above and beyond to ensure that all customers have a great experience.
  • You’ll become an Akkroo product expert, which will involve accurately identifying, analyzing, and resolving technical and non-technical issues, by promptly dealing with tickets in a timely, human manner and answering questions via a number of channels (phone, email, and live chat).
  • As the second US-based hire, you’ll be part of a growing team in the Americas. This is an excellent opportunity to get on the ground floor and help build a strong Akkroo presence in the US.

Requirements

  • At least 2 years support experience, ideally with B2B or SaaS software
  • We’re looking for someone who can work 12.30pm-5.30pm PST, Monday to Friday (flexibility to work earlier or later if required)

About You

  • You’re self-sufficient and love the challenge of solving problems and learning new things, but also thrive in an environment where you can do great work independently.
  • You’re patient and good humored. You’re an excellent listener and educator, and you’re always in search of new opportunities to contribute.
  • You’re passionate about support. You’re able to empathize with customers in a genuine way that lets them know you care about their issues.
  • You’re an excellent communicator, fluent in written English with a style focused on building human relationships with customers.
  • You’re just as comfortable on the phone as you are in an email or Live Chat.
  • You’re curious and have a natural ability to “zoom out” of a problem, in order to ask the right questions. An empathetic problem solver who goes out of their way to help people succeed.
  • You’re proactive when it comes to challenges. When you don’t know something, you embrace the chance to grow and get better.
  • You’ve ideally worked a remote/work-from-home position before, and have your own office setup
