Overview
The Client Support job for SOS Tutoring and Wize Live Prep is an exciting opportunity for someone keen to work from home, but still work in client facing roles. You will work closely with the Manager of Live Prep, and your tasks will principally be related to the SOS Tutoring brand at Concordia University in Montreal, with additional support as-needed with Wize’s Live Prep offerings at Western University in London and the University of British Columbia in Vancouver.
Job Responsibilities
Responsibilities include monitoring and responding to help requests via the in-house Intercom system, answering student emails, and engaging with student clients via Discord and other Social Media channels as needed within 11am to 7pm EST working hours Wednesday through Sunday, with Monday and Tuesday off as well as supporting the Wize Live Prep team with other administrative tasks.
Client Support
Answer and triage incoming questions through the SOS Tutoring and Wize Live Prep platforms pertaining to live study or tutoring sessions. Questions might include resharing Zoom links for ongoing sessions for which students are registered, sharing the schedule of tutoring sessions with students who cannot find the dates/times, and other responses to student queries in a timely manner.
Respond to student queries as quickly as possible in real time, as many of the questions will be time sensitive (“where is my Zoom link?” “is it too late to sign up?” etc.).
Monitor and respond to student queries received through FB/Instagram messenger and/or Discord as needed.
Maintain a polite, professional, and respectful attitude towards both internal and external stakeholders.
This portion of the job requires synchronous, real-time communication between the hours of 11am to 7pm Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Students with questions or concerns often need their anxieties reduced quickly and efficiently.
Administer Live Sessions
SOS Tutoring and Wize Live Prep offer both weekly tutoring sessions and exam-focused cram sessions for specific courses at specific universities. Your job will be to ensure that these weekly sessions or live sessions that fall between 11am and 7pm Wednesday to Sunday start on time, and all registered students are able to access the materials.
Troubleshoot any problems in real time to do with the running of any live sessions.
Upload and share relevant pdfs notes for these live tutoring sessions so that the registered students have the requisite custom materials for the sessions they sign up for.
Administrative Support
On days/times when no live sessions are scheduled during the 11am to 7pm working shift, you will help the Director of Operations with scheduling and administrative tasks as needed. This includes, but is not limited to analyzing course content for planned exam cram sessions on various campuses.
Location & Hours
Ideally you'd be based in Montreal to support Concordia University initiatives, but you can work remotely from elsewhere.
Your hours are 11am-7pm Wednesday through Sunday, with Monday and Tuesdays off.
You get benefits and a generous holiday allowance.
