We're looking for people who share our passion and are driven to tackle challenges, find solutions and make the financial space better for the communities we serve.

 

Our team is passionate about challenging the status quo of the credit industry by providing people accessible tools to take control of their credit. Executing our mission requires deep collaboration across our teams to ensure our products reach the people who can benefit from them the most, particularly the100 million+ Americans who have no or low credit.

 

About the Role: 

As a Customer Success Specialist, you will be supporting Self’s community in reaching their financial and credit goals. You will assist in resolving customer challenges through direct communication via phone, email, and chat. You will work closely with the Customer Success team and leadership to shape Self by providing feedback and developing ideas for improvement. You will work in a highly collaborative yet autonomous environment- where we celebrate our customer's successes and thrive on reaching our own internal goals!

 

Candidate Description:

You are smart, organized, upbeat, driven, and dependable. You appreciate working in a fast-paced, collaborative environment that rewards ability and results. You are concise and direct – and flourish in a challenging environment that offers the opportunity to test your problem-solving skills. You have an ability to engage and relate positively to our customers and community.

 

What you’ll do:

  • Work with the Customer Success team to ensure top customer satisfaction by resolving issues and finding quick, viable solutions through our main communication channels (calls, emails, and chats)
  • Act as a liaison with engineering and product teams to communicate urgent customer issues
  • Turn distressed customers/situations into opportunities to delight our customers through exceptional communication skills with a positive attitude
  • Deliver results in a timely manner
  • Thrive with the support of your teammates in daily/weekly meetings and fun team challenges

 

What you’ll have:

  • Enthusiastic and “self-starter” approach
  • Experience solving problems in a customer-facing environment, and providing consistent support
  • Brings high energy and interest to customer inquiries and remains calm and respectful
  • With a process-driven mindset; you can identify issues of all kinds and offer solid solutions
  • Strong written, verbal, and organization skills

 

Benefits and Perks:

We have the compensation and benefits you expect. But, there's one thing that Self Financial can offer that many startups cannot: we can positively change the world while making a profit. We are a team of Builders, empowering our customers to build their dreams. We have a Do the Right Thing ethos in all that we do, and we hope you value that approach, too. 

 

Our perks include:

  • Stock options
  • Quarterly performance-based bonuses
  • Generous employer-paid health, vision, and dental insurance coverage
  • Flexible vacation policy
  • Educational assistance
  • Free gym membership
  • Free at-home workout through Sworkit
  • Casual dress code
  • Team building events and activities
  • Remote work arrangements/ flexible work schedule
  • Monthly $100 COVID stipend

 

How we act with each other is how we act with our customers. We are direct, transparent, and respectful, and we hope you embrace that approach.

 

Self Financial requires all employees hired to successfully pass a background check.

 

We are an Equal Opportunity Employer.

An Insider's view of Self Financial

What’s the vibe like in the office?

We are constantly growing and facing new challenges, but everyone works well together. Our company events are always fun and a good way to get to know each other better. We are a very tight-knit group, and I wouldn't have it any other way!

Joanna

Customer Success Team Lead

What projects are you most excited about?

The best part about being at a company at this stage is being able to build data infrastructure and marketing programs from the ground up. I'm most excited to build out our entire retention marketing strategy to drive increased user engagement. We're utilizing a great growth automation system that allows us to do some really cool things.

Tim

Director of User Acquisition

How has your career grown since starting at the company?

Since joining Self, I've had the opportunity to develop my skills in both our frontend and backend repos. I've also learned a lot about working together with stakeholders to create new features or resolve bugs. I definitely feel like a stronger engineer having worked on this team and learning so much from my colleagues about maintainable code.

Kristin

Software Engineer

What is your vision for the company?

Most financial institutions cast aside those considered low-to-moderate income. We help people with fundamental aspects of financial health – building credit, using it wisely and saving money. My goal is to continue building a company of highly talented and collaborative people driven by a mission of helping people achieve financial stability.

Brett

Chief Marketing Officer

How do you collaborate with other teams in the company?

As a fast paced work environment, collaboration is key. It’s great to work with people who are willing to help each other out. If you have a question, it’s as easy as walking to their desk to ask!

Compliance Manager
