Job Description
We are seeking a Customer Support & Operations Assistant to support customer service operations, Shopify order management, and recurring operational support for a fast-growing ecommerce brand serving teachers and parents across the US, Canada, and Australia.
This role is first and foremost a customer support position. The majority of time will be spent responding to customer inquiries through Reamaze, helping customers access and use digital products, resolving order issues, and ensuring a positive customer experience. During peak periods tied to the US school calendar, customer support will be the primary focus. Outside of peak seasons, the role will expand into a variety of operational and brand-support responsibilities.
The ideal candidate is an excellent written communicator, highly organized, and capable of learning a large product catalog over time. Success in this role depends not only on handling tickets efficiently, but also on developing strong product knowledge, recognizing recurring customer issues, and serving as an early warning system for operational or customer experience problems.
This is not a generic virtual assistant role. The core value of the position is strong ecommerce customer support combined with dependable operational ownership in a remote-first environment.
