Discover our galaxy 🪐

We’ve built the industry’s leading freelance management solution — all on a powerful, data driven tech platform — to match companies with the right freelance talent.

Currently, the Customer Care team at Malt support the freelancers in solving any question they might have or issue they might encounter: how our services work, what are the payment terms, problem of payment delay or compliance validation. They also support our frontline teams (sales, community, …) fix issues and answer questions. 

The team is at the core of Malt, a community driven company where the freelancer experience is at the heart of everything we do. For most of our freelancers, they are the face of Malt. Currently the team is composed of 15 people supporting all countries.

As the company is growing fast and the business has developed into new segments (new Malt Strategy vertical, stronger footprint of large corporate clients), the company is transforming the way it operates in order to support the business and growth of the coming years. The scope of the team might evolve, with the addition of new segments supported (e.g., SMB clients), with the way it interacts with the users, freelancers and clients (e.g., not only inbound emails, but also outbound calls), with the implementation of level 1 & 2 support, etc. The right tools, processes, skills need to be built to support those changes.

Key Responsibilities ✨

    • Manage the team directly and build it to allow for scale. Maintain a team spirit reflecting Malt's values with a focus on people’s development.
    •  Transform the team into a best-in-class support pole, maximising the clients and freelancers experience along with the efficiency of the company.
    • Define the detailed target model of Customer Care and the interactions with the key stakeholder teams (sales, finance, community…). The target model includes the processes, flows, SLAs, tools, KPIs, capacity and skills.
    • Coordinate with other teams in order to build and implement the target model: Sales, Project Partners, Community, Ops, Data, Finance.
    • Train and enable the team to drive adoption of the new processes and responsibilities
    • Be an active contributor of the change management.

About you 🧑‍🚀

    • You have experience of implementing large transformation projects requiring a 360 view (from new processes to tools and HR implications)
    • You have the capability to influence other teams which are not in your direct supervision, to drive change across a company and to on-board people to your vision.
