  • Troubleshoot and resolve order, payment, delivery, return, refund, engraving, promotion, account, and product-related concerns efficiently and accurately.
  • Assist customers with LifeSharp and Warranty-related questions, status concerns, and service issues, coordinating with the teams that complete the physical services when additional support is required.
  • Provide confident product guidance and personalized recommendations based on customer needs, use cases, and preferences.
  • Conduct proactive outbound outreach in support of customer retention, relationship-building, service recovery, sales campaigns, and other business priorities.
  • Identify appropriate revenue opportunities during inbound and outbound interactions, accurately attribute resulting revenue, and balance commercial outcomes with a premium customer experience.
  • Process orders, returns, credits, claims, and other approved transactions in compliance with established SOPs, policies, and authorization limits.
  • Use Zendesk, Shopify, Microsoft applications, and other customer or business systems to maintain complete and accurate customer, ticket, and transaction records.
  • Represent the Benchmade brand voice with confidence, empathy, emotional intelligence, and strong product fluency across every interaction.
  • Apply sound judgment when interpreting policies, resolving exceptions, escalating risk, and determining the appropriate path to resolution.
  • Identify recurring customer pain points, process gaps, and improvement opportunities, and share actionable feedback with CX leadership.
  • Actively contribute to a positive, accountable team culture through collaboration, knowledge sharing, peer support, and reliable execution.
  • Participate in product launches, training sessions, calibration activities, and team initiatives to maintain current knowledge and adapt to changing business needs.
  • Cross-train in additional Customer Experience functions and provide support for retail, events, or other business needs as assigned.
  • Meet or exceed KPIs, including CSAT, IQS, AHT, AUR, and Customer EDGE commitments.

  • Strong attention to detail and ability to document interactions, process transactions, and maintain accurate records.
  • Proven ability to collaborate effectively across teams and navigate internal dependencies to reach resolution.

  • Growth mindset with openness to feedback, coaching, performance measurement, and continuous learning.
  • Ability to multitask, prioritize effectively, and adapt to changing customer volume, channel demand, and business priorities.
  • Availability 7:30 a.m.-4:00 p.m. Monday-Friday.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
