Remote E-commerce Support Assistant – Your Next Chapter Starts Here

Welcome to a Place Where You Belong

Picture starting your morning knowing that your support truly uplifts people—customers, colleagues, and new faces from all over the globe. As a Remote E-commerce Support Assistant, you’re not just working behind a screen; you’re becoming part of a workplace where empathy, warmth, and belonging guide everything. This is a team where kindness isn’t just encouraged—it’s the expectation. Here, every question gets a patient answer, every concern is heard, and everyone is free to be themselves.

The real magic of this job is the difference you make, even in small ways. Helping someone nervous about an online order, guiding a first-time shopper, or giving a reassuring update to a frustrated customer—all of it matters. We’re a group comprised of individuals from diverse backgrounds, and we value each person's unique story. A recent team member put it best: “I’ve never worked remotely and felt so genuinely valued. Here, my perspective and life experience shape the work I do.”

What Sets This Role Apart?

This isn’t your average online support role. It’s a chance to be a trusted helper, a creative problem-solver, and a steady hand in moments of stress. You’ll collaborate every day (virtually, but personally) with people who respect and uplift one another. If you enjoy making an online shopping experience smoother or turning a challenging situation into a win, you’ll fit right in. The positive energy and careful attention you bring will ripple out—customers notice, and so does your team.

You’ll be the human connection on chat, email, and phone—sometimes calming, celebrating, always listening. You’ll get familiar with the routines and quirks of online shopping. Whether it’s answering questions about products, helping track down a delivery, explaining return policies, or walking someone through a tricky checkout, you’re the one making online shopping less stressful and more friendly. Mentorship is ongoing here, and doors (virtual or otherwise) are always open for support, ideas, or a quick chat. Every time a customer says "thank you," the whole team feels the win.

Key Responsibilities – Make a Real Impact Every Day

  • Respond promptly and thoughtfully to customer questions and requests via chat, email, or phone.
  • Solve issues around orders, payments, or deliveries with patience and thoroughness.
  • Guide shoppers through product choices, returns, and refunds with empathy
  • Team up with colleagues in logistics, sales, or product to untangle tricky problems
  • Keep an eye on feedback and recurring issues, suggesting ways to improve the experience
  • Stay current on what’s in stock, what’s new, and how promotions work
  • Share tips, advice, and a little encouragement with your teammates
  • Always represent our culture of inclusion and respect with every interaction

The Tools and Tech You’ll Use

You’ll have access to user-friendly digital tools for e-commerce, order tracking, and customer care. Think platforms like Shopify, WooCommerce, Zendesk, Gorgias, or Freshdesk—don’t worry, we’ll teach you what you need to know. Our crew enjoys sharing their favorite tech shortcuts and keeping each other informed about the latest updates. If you discover a tool or technique that saves time or makes tasks easier, we want to hear about it.

What You Bring – The Qualities That Shine

  • A genuine sense of empathy, with strong communication skills (both written and verbal)
  • Experience in customer support, retail, e-commerce, or any job helping people (remote work is a plus, but not required)
  • Comfortably moving around online stores and handling digital systems with ease.
  • You notice the little things that others might miss and have a talent for explaining complicated ideas straightforwardly.
  • Flexibility—you’re ready to learn new tools or adjust when things change
  • Dedication to keeping the workplace inclusive, diverse, and welcoming
