Position Introduction
A digitally native consumer goods brand is expanding its customer experience team and is looking to bring on additional remote Help Desk Chat Assistants. This role is open to applicants without prior experience or formal education—what matters most is your ability to communicate effectively in writing, stay organized, and maintain a calm demeanor while helping others. If you're ready to begin a career in online customer support, this opportunity offers training, growth potential, and flexible scheduling options.
Primary Tasks You’ll Perform
Live Chat Support
Answer real-time customer questions using an online chat system. Most inquiries involve product availability, shipping timelines, account troubleshooting, and basic order issues. Your responses will follow brand tone and templates but should feel friendly and helpful.
Navigation Guidance
Assist users in navigating the company’s website, tracking orders, and locating product categories. You’ll often point them to links, explain processes, or share quick tips using chat macros and prepared scripts.
Identify and Escalate Edge Cases
If you encounter situations outside of your authority—such as suspected fraud or damaged goods—you’ll route the chat to a specialist. You’re never left on your own to handle sensitive cases.
Maintain Customer Records
For each chat completed, you'll document key information using a short tagging and summary process to ensure continuity if customers return for follow-up.
Your Daily Workflow
- Log into the company’s web-based platform
- Start receiving and responding to queued chats from customers
- Use provided response guides and macros to reply quickly and accurately
- Work independently but with real-time access to support if needed
- Complete and close each chat with notes and categorization

Technical Setup You’ll Need

- Quiet and private workspace
What You’ll Receive
- $25/hour starting rate
- Weekly direct deposit
- Work-from-anywhere flexibility
- Training and access to team leads for support
- Flexible scheduling including evenings and weekends
- No phone calls, no video conferencing, no camera needed
Getting Started
You’ll begin with a short online orientation that walks you through the company platform, response guides, and escalation procedures. Once training is complete, you’ll shadow a few practice chats and then begin taking live messages under light supervision. Continued mentorship is available through a live internal team chat feature during your shifts.
