Work environment & location

  • Paid training + coaching: You'll learn the scripts, systems, and compliance basics—no guessing
  • Remote option after you're up to speed: This role starts in person. After training and once you consistently meet performance expectations (KPIs), you can transition to work from home (typically around 45 days)
  • Benefits package available: Medical, dental, vision, 401(k), and PTO
  • Stable, full-time hours: A consistent schedule in a professional call center environment
  • Growth opportunity: Clear path to develop and move up as you build performance

  • Handle inbound and outbound calls about account balances and payment options

  • Answer questions, handle basic disputes, and route requests appropriately
  • Accurately document account activity in internal systems
  • Meet expectations for call quality, productivity, and KPIs
  • Follow company policies and compliance requirements, including FDCPA and related regulations

Who this role is great for (especially if you're coming from retail/fast food)

You'll do well here if you've worked in:

  • Retail customer service (cashier, sales associate, store associate, front end)
  • Fast food / quick service restaurants (crew member, shift lead, drive-thru, counter service)
  • Food bank / nonprofit service roles (intake, client services, distribution support)
  • and you're ready for a more structured role with consistent hours, training, and advancement.

What we're looking for

Required:

  • Strong communication skills and comfort speaking on the phone
  • Customer service mindset—able to be firm, fair, and respectful
  • Basic computer skills (able to navigate multiple screens/systems)
  • Strong attention to detail and accurate documentation
  • Ability to handle sensitive conversations and maintain confidentiality
  • Reliable attendance and punctuality

Preferred (not required):

  • 6+ months in customer service, call center, collections, accounts receivable, or financial services
  • Bilingual skills a plus
