Entry Level Customer Support Jobs in Alabama (NOW HIRING)

Be the steady, trusted voice customers count on and build a meaningful career while you do it. As a Customer Solutions Representative at Spire, you’ll help customers start, stop, and transfer services, navigate billing questions, and get urgent support when it matters most - making everyday energy access seamless. Every call becomes a chance to offer clarity, care, and real solutions that strengthen trust in our communities.

This entry-level role is your gateway into the natural gas industry, backed by hands-on training, supportive teammates, and leaders who truly listen. At Spire, adaptability, collaboration, and ownership guide everything we do and they’re the qualities that help you grow. Whether you’re looking to advance into leadership, operations, or specialized customer support, Spire gives you the platform to build a long-term, purpose-driven career.

• Answering inbound customer calls, emails, and chats
• Finding the quickest and most effective solution to customer issues such as service orders, service disconnection/reconnection, service complaints, billing, payment arrangements, web account access/use, gas-related emergencies and special campaigns/promotions

If this sounds like you, you’re in the right place:

• You like to take charge, and people often look to you for direction or guidance
• You’re quick to identify issues and enjoy tackling them head-on
• Your friends would describe you as “cool as a cucumber” when things get hectic
• You’re interested in where the energy industry is going, and you want to be part of it
• You have a high school diploma or equivalent

• Now that you know us a little better, you can see we do things differently. To us, customer service is much more than saying “I’m sorry” and “I understand.” It’s about owning the conversation and getting each and every customer what they need.
• Simply put, it’s challenging work. Our expectations around the quality of our customer service are among the highest in the industry. When calls spike in the fall and the winter, it gets a little crazy. And, when people reach out to us, they’re not always at their best, and that can be emotionally draining.
• Our reward is in how we show people that Spire is there for them and their community. Not every conversation will end on a high note, but our customers should hang up the phone feeling that Spire treated them with care and respect.
• That’s why we don’t put up a wall between ourselves and our customers. You won’t find scripts or canned phrases like “Thank you for your business” here. As the voice of our company, we use our individual strengths to open up to people, get to the root of their problem, and resolve it. We rely on our teams to speak up about issues that might be causing customers problems so we can improve our service.
• People who fully embrace what we do and how we do it have the opportunity to pursue long and enriching careers at Spire.
