Customer Support & Operations Associate

Position Overview

As a Customer Support & Operations Associate, you will play a key role in ensuring a smooth and trusted experience for both homeowners and service providers using the Hey Alfie platform. You’ll handle customer queries, help coordinate quotes and bookings, and maintain accurate records in our systems. You’ll work closely with the wider team, taking ownership of workflows while escalating more complex issues. This is a hands-on role for someone who is hardworking, empathetic and organised.

• Liaise directly with trusted service providers — from plumbers to surveyors — to source quotes, confirm availability and coordinate bookings.
• Support users in reviewing quotes, making payment and tracking job progress from start to finish.
• Proactively manage cases to ensure all parties are kept informed and satisfied with the service outcome.
• Use a CRM system (HubSpot) to enter job information, log all conversations, manage tasks and track job progress.
• Take ownership of routine cases, escalating complex or sensitive issues to the wider team.
• Gather feedback from users and providers to share with the team.
• Contribute to improving internal workflows and adopting new tools as we scale.

Requirements

• Minimum 1-2 years of experience in a customer support, service coordination or operations role (startup, property services, or tech environment a plus)
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a clear, friendly and professional manner.
• Highly organised with strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple tasks.
• Empathetic and people-focused, with the ability to build trust and calmly resolve issues.
• Comfortable using CRM systems such as HubSpot.
• Proactive, dependable and motivated to learn in a fast-moving startup.
• Background in property, home services, trades or startups is a plus, but not essential.
