Customer Success at Swiftly

The Customer Success team at Swiftly works to ensure customers are happy and find immense value in the tools that Swiftly provides. We’re on the front line, being the first point of contact for customers that have questions, are encountering issues, or need more support. When problems arise, we ensure that individual customers are listened to and that their issues are cared for, and we apply a keen analytical eye to spot trends and communicate problems in proactive ways with the Product team. We are passionate about improving mobility in the communities we serve, and we work side by side with transit agencies and operators to ensure their projects are impactful. We love the human aspect of our work and thrive on getting creative to solve problems or boost network performance. The Customer Success Organization is responsible for everything post-sale, from handling the implementation, training our customers, quarterly business reviews, renewals, and everything in between.

About the Customer Success Associate Role

Swiftly now has contracts with over 100 transit agencies, meaning we get many questions, comments, and other inquiries every day. As a Customer Success Associate, you will be our first line of defense to respond to customer inquiries. This is a dual role that will manage a small portfolio of accounts while helping build out our tech touch motion and managing a small, but ever-important technical support queue. This is a great opportunity for someone who is interested in transitioning from a Technical Support position to a Customer Success role as it will have components of both roles.

_Even though Swiftly's HQ office is located in San Francisco, CA, we are open to candidates in all locations across the U.S. as well as Ontario, Canada. At this time we are unable to provide Visa sponsorship. _#LI-Remote
