Customer Success Specialist providing support for bicycle insurance and services via email and web chat. Collaborating with the CX team to enhance customer experience across the UK and NL.
Responsibilities
Supporting Laka customers (& potential customers) with general questions about Laka's products & services, their bicycle insurance and new initiatives via web chat and email
Help Laka members to file their claims and guide them through the process of replacing or repairing their bikes and kit either directly with us or by coordinating with third-parties (shops, manufacturers, distributors etc)
Be the first point of contact for our B2B partners, supporting them to get their riders back on the road
Work closely with the CX team across both the UK and NL to provide a convenient, swift and seamless experience to our members
Collate feedback from the collective on an ongoing basis and produce actionable intel to support decision making, both in the CX team and others around Laka
Get stuck into our squad-based work, with the goal to continue to make Laka the best it can be (you might find yourself working on exciting projects with the Marketing, Product or Technology teams)
Requirements
We require that you speak English and French/Dutch/German
Have a super strong empathy for cyclists and what it means when someone has their bike nicked, damaged or injures themselves whilst out & about on their bike
Have a decent understanding of technical terms in cycling (we can bring you up to speed with the latest bike tech), so you can best support all types of customers with whatever query is thrown your way
Get loads of satisfaction from helping people going through a rough patch (losing your bike isn't easy, you know) - you'll understand what it means to go the extra mile and make a member's day
Enjoy learning new things, working with a lovely bunch of people, and ultimately playing a huge part in the future of Laka!
Are a fast learner and can get up to speed with common tools - we use a number of systems at Laka, but don't worry, we'll give you all the training you need
Are comfortable chatting with our members, with excellent written communication in (native) Dutch & English
Of course it is great if you already have previous insurance experience, "WFT" (insurance) certificates or experience as a bike mechanic. We can work together on completing your skill set.
Before you apply, please make sure that you currently have the right to work in the UK (we're really sorry, but we're not able to provide visa sponsorship for this role).
