The Customer Experience team at Shine

At Shine, we aim to deliver the best possible experience to our customers. To go one step further, we recently introduced phone support as an additional way for customers to contact us.

Within the Customer Experience department, we have created a dedicated team responsible for answering inbound calls and supporting customers throughout the day. As one of the first members of this Phone Squad, you will help us develop this new channel and bring Shine’s customer-experience vision even further.

You will work closely with Edouard, the Lead of this new team, Minh, our Customer Experience Manager, and the wider Customer Experience organisation.

Your role as a Customer Experience Specialist – Phone Squad

You will be one of the most accessible and trusted points of contact for our customers—the voice of the Shine customer experience. Your primary role is to answer inbound calls and support entrepreneurs and business owners with the day-to-day management of their professional account.

You will guide customers across three main topics: administrative questions, technical support, and banking-related matters. You will combine active listening, clear communication, and strong problem-solving to provide reassuring, relevant, and high-quality support.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Deliver complete, accurate, and high-quality answers to customer requests, mainly by phone.

• Practice active listening to understand customers’ expectations and frustrations, anticipate what will reassure them, and strengthen their trust in Shine.

• Build expertise in business-account, administrative, and technical-support topics in order to provide the most relevant solutions directly.

• Communicate proactively with internal teams—including Tech, Product, Compliance, and Sales—about customer issues and recurring pain points.

• Contribute to continuously improving the service, customer journey, team processes, workflows, and ways of working.
