Customer Support Representative at Ava Finance

**Job Description**:
**About Us**

The financial system isn’t built to help most people. It works against you, with complicated rules and hefty penalties. That’s why we made Ava. We’re on a mission to level the playing field and help Americans keep more of their money.

We’ve been working together on this journey for over 2 years and have the backing of top-tier investors like Greylock, Firebolt & Precursor. These are the same investors that backed companies like Square, Affirm, Stripe, and PayPal.

**About the Role**

A Customer Support Representative, or CSR, will provide support related to product/services information, answer queries, and resolve/escalate any emerging problems that our customer accounts might face with accuracy and efficiency.

The target is to ensure excellent service standards, respond efficiently to customer inquiries and maintain high customer satisfaction.

You will be the first point of contact when a customer has a problem or requires assistance with Ava’s products. A customer service representative should be able to interact with a customer and immediately pinpoint the context of their problem. Support agents should have sound knowledge of the product/service, which will help them suggest a solution to the customer right away.
