Wild Alaskan Company’s mission is to accelerate humanity’s transition to sustainable food systems by fostering meaningful, interconnected relationships between human beings, wild seafood and the planet.

We deliver wild-caught, sustainable seafood to households across the United States. Powered by our custom-built eCommerce platform and three generations of history and expertise in the Alaskan fishing industry, we constantly strive to meet our promise of a top-notch product and experience. And we do it all in a fully-remote environment that is fast-paced, challenging, and fun. 

Member Experience Specialist

About the Role

You are the face of Wild Alaskan when it comes to interacting with our members and potential members. As a digital fishmonger, our company relies on you to embody our values and to share our mission with our members. When something goes wrong with a delivery, you're the first responder. If someone just wants to chat about seafood and sustainability, you're there to hear them out. If a visitor isn't so sure about what we do or why we're worth it, you help them understand who we are and why we're different.  

Core Responsibilities 

  • Respond to inbound inquiries from members and future members across multiple channels including live chat, email and phone.
  • Maintain a high-satisfaction rate from members and keep our first response time below one minute on chat and one hour across all other channels, all while building member loyalty.
  • Assist members with inquiries concerning order issues, cooking and recipes, account management and more, all while building relationships.
  • Communicate with empathy and always put the member first in all email, live chat and phone interactions.
  • Report on member behavior and bugs, and generate content derived from anecdotes and analytics. 
  • Represent the company’s values and mission in each interaction.
  • Participate in continuous improvement weekly meetings, as well as daily stand-ups to go over open conversations, learnings from yesterday and goals for the day. 
  • Other duties and special projects as assigned.

Requirements

  • Impeccable writing skills – from email, to live chat, to Slack, written communication is the backbone of our internal and external operations
  • Excellent relationship building skills and a level of empathy that is off the charts – our team succeeds when we uphold the same standards with our members as we do with ourselves
  • Passion for helping people – you won’t stop trying until our member is happy
  • A successful track record working in a high volume environment – could be tossing pizzas or previous eCommerce experience. What we really mean is that you must be willing to adapt to change and embrace growth
  • Ability to solve problems by thinking analytically and creatively– we’ll show you the process, but your success will depend on your ability to implement on your feet
  • A high attention to detail – being detail oriented helps in a fast- paced environment
  • Team-first attitude – Our team works remotely using Slack/Zoom/Intercom, covering 7 days per week (don’t worry, you’ll only work 5), and we rely heavily on our peers to help one another
