  • Contribute to January’s contact center call procedures and processes, raising the bar for how we interact with borrowers.

  • Improve existing contact center processes, assist in evaluating inbound call workflows, efficiencies, and problems to identify the most effective use of resources to meet capacity goals.

  • Inform future product improvements by gathering user feedback through your use of January’s system and communication with borrowers. 

  • Understand and adhere to all federal and state collection and consumer protection laws and regulations, as well as our internal policies and procedures.

What You Bring to the Table

  • 2 - 3+ years of customer service experience with a proven track record of high performance

  • Comfortable with conversing on the phone about sensitive financial matters

  • Preference towards an empathetic and respectful tone while communicating verbally with consumers

  • Excellent negotiation and problem-solving skills
