About Spokeo

Join our mission to make the world more transparent with data.

Spokeo is a people search engine that helps over 18 million monthly visitors reconnect with friends, reunite with families, and protect against fraud. Additionally, our 12 billion records and over 250 million unique profiles help business professionals locate people and assets, research criminal investigation subjects, and more.

Founded in 2006, we have grown to a remote-first company of nearly 150 dedicated employees with an average tenure of 5.3 years. Find out why we were named a “Best Company” for 2023 by Comparably for Women, Compensation, Happiest Employees, Company Perks & Benefits, and Work-Life Balance, as well as “Best CEO” for co-founder Harrison Tang.

About this Opportunity

This position demands versatility, as we are in a fast-paced environment. We are searching for people who will get the job 'done' and go beyond the call of duty. There are often opportunities for promotion and for that reason, we look for people who show a special quality to take our department and company to the next level. For this position, you will be required to complete training and work remotely on a full-time basis, 40 hours per week. This role reports to a Customer Care Lead.

This temporary to possible permanent position will be employed through an employment agency for 4-6 months, at which point, the position will be assessed for permanent employment directly with Spokeo. There is no guarantee that employment with Spokeo will occur.

What you’ll do:

  • Accurately, quickly, and efficiently handle customer contacts via phone (for billing and retention, technical troubleshooting, content questions, etc.). Training for handling chat and email contacts will come later.

  • Translate technological jargon in a way that users like your parents or grandparents could easily understand.

  • Take key user feedback, and quickly and concisely pass it to the appropriate department (so we can keep improving the user experience).

The skills you have:

  • Strong communication - both verbal and written

  • Flexibility and can work anytime within our Customer Care Department Hours: currently 7 am - 6 pm Pacific (7 days/week)

  • Goal-driven and outcome-oriented in prior work experiences

  • Solutions-oriented when working with remote customers

  • Curious about technology and a quick study

  • Strong typing skills - at least 50 wpm or more

  • Prior inbound and outbound experience preferred

Other things that would make you further stand out:

  • Prior experience with Zendesk

  • A four-year college degree or work experience equivalent
