We listen with purpose, leave our egos at the door and aren't afraid to make difficult decisions. We must never confuse kindness with being \"nice\" - it requires us to be fair, consistent, honest, thoughtful and compassionate.\n\nWe Are Tenacious - We fight every day to keep the customer promise, for every parcel entrusted to us. No matter how hard it gets or whatever stands in our way, we are relentless in our pursuit of excellence.\n\nWe Are Curious - We never settle, constantly challenge convention and are never afraid to ask why. We believe there is always more to learn, always a better way, and that we're always only just getting started. We never fight the urge to be inquisitive, to understand the world around us and to explore where others might not.\n\nWe Are Resourceful - Our planet's resources are scarce and our future depends on our ability to use them wisely. Waste is the enemy. We strive to do more with less, be more efficient and make the most of what we have.\n\nKPIs\nCore Individual KPIs\nSupport Quality Score: Measures the quality of our Customer Support by tracking how happy customers are with the support they received, how easy they believe it was to get help, and how they feel about HIVED after speaking with the team.\nAverage Handle Time: The average time spent on a single interaction\nQA Score: Quality score measuring empathy, accuracy, compliance and adherence to processes and guidelines.\nContacts per hour: Minimum expected tickets or chats solved per hour\nWho you are\n1-2 years experience in similar client-facing, customer service roles (eg hospitality, retail, etc.)\n\nA problem-solving mindset.
