About the Role

We are looking for a highly experienced Customer Support Specialist – Driver Communications to support a fast-paced, technology-driven logistics operation.

Manage multiple active conversations and operational issues simultaneously.

Respond to driver questions quickly, accurately, and professionally.

Troubleshoot delivery, driver, scheduling, and operational issues in real time.

Determine when an issue can be resolved independently and when escalation is required.

Escalate urgent or complex situations quickly to the appropriate internal team.

Follow established workflows, escalation procedures, and service standards.

Adapt quickly to changing priorities, schedules, and operational requirements.

Help maintain a reliable and positive experience for the driver network.

Demonstrated ability to manage multiple active customer conversations, requests, or operational issues simultaneously.

Experience working with strict response-time expectations, service levels, queues, or other performance-driven support metrics.

Excellent written English, minimum C1 level, with strong grammar, clarity, and professional communication.

Strong problem-solving skills and ability to make decisions without constant supervision.

Ability to learn and navigate multiple software platforms simultaneously.

Reliable high-speed internet connection and appropriate remote-work setup.

Full availability for the required variable schedule, including weekend coverage.

Strongly Preferred Experience

Logistics or transportation operations.

Last-mile delivery or on-demand delivery platforms.

Driver or courier support.

Dispatch or fleet operations.

Field operations.

Ride-sharing or gig-economy platforms.

High-volume BPO/customer support environments.

Real-time operational support involving urgent issue resolution.

Experience supporting drivers, couriers, contractors, or other field-based teams is a significant advantage.

Skills & Competencies

Excellent written communication and fast response times.

Strong multitasking and prioritization skills.

Detail-oriented, organized, and reliable.

Strong problem-solving and escalation judgment.

Comfortable working under pressure in fast-paced environments.

Adaptable, accountable, and effective in remote teams.
