At OutboundEngine, we take great pride in the fact that we’ve been named Best Places to Work in Austin three years in a row by providing an excellent product for small business owners and by treating our employees as our most valued resources. This doesn’t just mean happy hours and snacks and the usual start-up perks (though we certainly provide those); it means that we take our employees’ comfort, career development, and feedback very seriously.

In the Retention Specialist role, you’ll be responsible for consulting and re educating customers on the value of our email and social media marketing services. Assisting our customers with their technical questions via phone and email support is also required. The Retention department also works directly with our customers to adjust their billing or product package and the cancellation of accounts . We’re a growing, dynamic department, so you’ll be expected to jump in and figure things out quickly. You’ll have to be a good listener, insanely organized, detail-oriented, friendly, and excited to know you can make a very real difference every day in a rapidly-growing business!
