THE ROLE

The Tier 1 Technical Support Agent is a key member of the School Support Team (SST), embodying qualities of high motivation, attention to detail, and exceptional customer service. With an unwavering commitment to documentation and escalation best practices, this role plays a pivotal part in providing first-level non-technical and basic technical support to our school users. Responsibilities include troubleshooting common issues, triaging more complex problems, and ensuring proactive follow-ups. Agents diligently monitor open, pending, on-hold, or follow-up needed tickets to ensure timely resolutions and high customer satisfaction, handling every customer interaction with meticulous attention to detail.

Additional responsibilities and accountabilities for this role could include:

• Provide initial response and resolution for various non-technical and basic technical inquiries from school staff, covering common operational and system-related issues.

• Efficiently escalate tickets requiring advanced technical intervention to Tier 2 support with comprehensive internal notes, ensuring seamless continuity and enhanced satisfaction.

• Proactively follow up on tickets in open, pending, on-hold, or follow-up status to ensure unresolved issues are addressed promptly, facilitating continuity and timely escalation to Tier 2 support when necessary.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams and departments to ensure accurate escalation of issues, facilitating smooth handoffs and timely resolutions, thus optimizing the support process, and enhancing overall customer satisfaction.

• Demonstrate a meticulous attention to detail by thoroughly analyzing past ticket history, Salesforce notes, and relevant resources to ensure accurate assessment and resolution of customer inquiries.

• Exhibit a sense of urgency and unwavering dedication in addressing customer issues, prioritizing timely resolution and proactive communication to ensure a high level of customer satisfaction

THE OUTCOMES WE EXPECT:

Outcome #1: Leverage available downtime to proactively follow up on all unresolved tickets, aiming to increase engagement rates and drive more tickets toward full resolution.

Outcome #2: Enhance the quality of internal notes and accuracy of ticket classification to ensure reliable data for future analysis and reporting.

Outcome #3: Increase resolution rate to achieve an average of 3 Tier 1 solves per hour.

THE TALENTS YOU BRING:

Strong empathetic skills with a proven ability to understand and share the feelings of our clients, guaranteeing a supportive and caring interaction every time.

Prior experience in customer service, preferably in a technology or media-related field, demonstrating a capacity to resolve issues and maintain high customer satisfaction rate.

Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to convey technical information in a clear and concise manner.

Experience with ticketing systems like Zendesk and customer relationship management (CRM) software such as Salesforce.

Flexibility to adapt to changing priorities and willingness to learn new technologies and processes as required.

HOW YOU PLAY:

Ownership over Participation: You take responsibility for achieving holistic outcomes, prioritize key objectives, and adapt quickly when situations require a different approach. You follow through even against the toughest challenges.

Team over Stars: You are a bridge builder, establishing processes and relationships with teams outside your own. You work to rally around common goals, find win-win solutions, compromise when necessary, and help others succeed.

Growth over Comfort: You are driven by a desire to grow and actively seek opportunities to expand your comfort zone, skills, and confidence. You embrace new challenges with curiosity, accepting discomfort and failure as opportunities to learn.

Fairness over Popularity: You approach decisions with a scientist’s mindset, challenging your assumptions and remaining objective. You consider long-term impact rather than relying on short-term gains, proactively seek others’ perspectives, and manage emotions in decision-making.
