Remote Customer Support Agent (Upwork)

Be the Friendly Face of Support—From Anywhere

Are you someone who thrives on helping others and believes every question deserves a patient, thoughtful answer? Do you enjoy being part of a community where everyone’s voice matters and where your contributions directly shape positive experiences for people across the globe? We’re looking for a Remote Customer Support Agent to join our diverse, collaborative, and people-focused team. This fully remote role offers an annual salary of $80,000, inviting compassionate professionals to help us build an inclusive workplace where empathy and respect guide every aspect of our work.

Our Story: Supporting People, Celebrating Diversity

Our journey is fueled by a simple belief: great support can transform not only the customer’s day but also our own workplace culture. Over the years, we’ve welcomed team members from every walk of life—students seeking flexibility, career changers discovering new passions, and experienced support specialists who value being heard and respected. One of our agents, Jamie, joined after a career break and found encouragement from teammates at every step. Today, Jamie helps mentor new hires by sharing their story, demonstrating that growth and belonging go hand in hand. Here, everyone is welcome, and every background adds to our collective strength.

What You’ll Do: Responsibilities That Matter

  • Handle customer questions and concerns across chat, email, or phone, always aiming for clarity, warmth, and efficiency in every interaction.
  • Listen actively and approach each interaction with patience and understanding, focusing on finding solutions that prioritize the customer's needs.
  • Collaborate with your team and share insights to help us improve our support processes, products, and services.
  • Document cases accurately, using our customer relationship management tools to ensure information is accessible to all team members.
  • Follow up on open issues and keep customers informed, turning challenges into opportunities to build trust.
  • Uphold our equal opportunity values by providing the same level of care and respect to every individual you help.

What Makes Our Work Environment Unique

We’re proud of our supportive and flexible work environment, where team members connect from across the world, learning from each other’s experiences. You’ll be encouraged to share ideas, ask questions, and develop new approaches. Weekly virtual coffee chats and all-hands meetings keep everyone involved, whether you’re contributing insights on customer experience or celebrating a colleague’s big win. We operate on a foundation of mutual respect, honest dialogue, and authentic support for everyone on our team.

Tools and Technology You’ll Use

To empower our agents, we invest in modern support technology, including cloud-based helpdesk platforms, instant messaging for quick collaboration, and knowledge bases that enable you to find answers quickly and easily. We’re constantly testing new tools to make your work easier, including language translation apps to reach a broader customer base and workflow automation that lets you focus on what matters: human connection.

Qualifications: What We’re Looking For

  • Prior experience in customer support, remote assistance, or client care (any industry or background welcome).
  • Clear, friendly communication skills with a focus on empathy and active listening.
  • Ability to remain calm and effective under pressure or when resolving sensitive issues.
  • Comfort using digital support tools such as live chat, CRM systems, and ticketing platforms.
  • Commitment to our inclusive workplace values, treating every customer and team member with dignity and fairness.
  • A dependable internet connection and the self-discipline needed to organize your workday from home.

Growth, Learning, and Support for You

We believe your growth matters as much as the success of our customers. That’s why we offer:

  • Regular skill-building workshops and training in both technical and interpersonal support skills.
  • Opportunities to move into specialist or leadership roles—many of our current leaders began their careers as agents themselves.
  • A mentorship program that matches you with seasoned team members for advice, encouragement, and practical tips.
  • Access to wellness resources, support for mental health, and a safe space to ask for what you need.
  • Recognition programs to celebrate the positive impact you make, because your contributions truly matter.

Our Commitment to Inclusion and Equal Opportunity

Diversity makes us stronger, and we’re dedicated to building a team that reflects the world we serve. Regardless of race, gender, ability, or background, you’ll find a welcoming space here. Our policies and practices ensure fair treatment, open feedback, and zero tolerance for discrimination. We listen, we learn, and we adapt—so everyone can thrive.
