Customer Service Associate (USA)

Description

7LFreight by WebCargo digitizes domestic and international rate management, quoting & booking for over 300 of North America’s logistics providers and carriers. Or, in plain English, we help move the world, offering incredible technology that simplifies the working life of the people who help get the goods we all use wherever they need to go.

We’re not alone either. 7LFreight is a proud part of Freightos (Nasdaq: CRGO) is the global booking and payment platform for the trillion-dollar freight industry. Hundreds of airlines and ocean liners, thousands of freight companies, and over ten thousand importers and exporters use our platform to move goods around the world faster and more efficiently. This matters. Efficient freight ultimately makes things cost a little bit less when you buy them in the store.

As our Customer Service Associate (or Superstar of the Sky, if you prefer a hero name), you’ll help manage the hopefully very, very rapidly growing number of eBookings. Which means you’ll:

Responsibilities:

• Monitor all eBookings placed on-platform like a hawk to ensure that every bit and byte of data is transferred effectively from the freight companies on our platform to the airlines.
• Yes, there’s a lot of tech involved but trust us, we’ll help you learn how to use it. 
• When you’re moving EVERYTHING in the world, things happen. But that’s why you’re there. Like a Shipping Sherlock Holmes, you’ll track and investigate eBookings issues. 
• When things go wrong, you’ll ring the alarm bells, escalating appropriately to the right people.
• Customers come first (once we’ve had coffee). You’ll be there on the front-line, as the point of contact for our users, providing live support via chat, and back office support working on tickets, following up with Freight Forwarders to ensure that everything goes so well when they eBook, they prefer to book air freight than hang out at pool parties. As a matter of fact, they’ll enjoy it so much that they’ll come back and book again.
• We love our airlines too. So you’ll serve as the point of contact for airlines to resolve any technical or operational discrepancies related to eBookings. 
• As you gain on the ground insights, you’ll document feature requests and help prioritize our roadmap. Trust us, it feels amazing when you get to tell a customer something they asked for is being developed. Cherish it. 
• Like Buzz Lightyear in Toy Story, you’ve got a friend. Together with our User Engagement Specialist, you’ll help automate communication and streamline on-platform training.
