About the role A rare opportunity awaits an ambitious estimator to leverage their industry knowledge in a more dynamic, high-growth tech environment. — join Countfire on its mission to revolutionise the way electrical estimating is carried out and make estimators superhuman!
Through the development of our flagship takeoff software we have grown a fantastic reputation and loyal customer base across the globe. We’re now seeking a Product Specialist to join our team and help deliver exceptional support to these valued customers.
About you
An estimator, or a support person within the electrical or mechanical sector
Already with an interest in software you will enjoy helping others learn how to use technology to their own benefit
You absolutely must be enthusiastic, articulate and confident at speaking to professionals of all levels
Someone with excellent written communication skills, paying high attention to detail when it comes to spelling and grammar
You must take pride in your work and enjoy the challenge of hitting KPIs
As we’re a remote team you must be able to prioritise and execute your workload without needing to be managed
We appreciate that you’ve probably not done a job like this before. Whilst you absolutely will benefit from utilising your previous knowledge and experience as an estimator, the job itself is a totally different ball game. You will be given comprehensive on the job training in a very supportive and collaborative environment.
What will the role involve? A Product Specialist on the support team at Countfire primarily deals with inbound support enquiries. That means you will be on hand to answer any questions users may have about the software, responding in a professional and timely manner. You will also be required to run training sessions with new customers as part of their onboarding process.
We pride ourselves on the knowledge of our Product Specialists so you will be expected to learn the product inside out and ensure that our users understand all of the product features that will benefit them. This is where existing estimating experience is essential as you will be able to use your first hand experience to relate to specific user needs.
The key to your success will be maintaining our low response time (we aim to respond to any support requests within 2 minutes!), accurately following internal processes to respond to different support requests efficiently and being able to talk through technical features in a simple way that people can understand.
Providing quality training and support is essential for the success of Countfire so you will be a crucial part of the team. We will look to you for ways to improve our support processes and you should be comfortable bringing new ideas to the table.
Product Specialist expectations
To act with honesty and integrity at all times
To bring your passion for estimating and technology life and channel that into how you deal with our users
To have a thirst for developing relationships and being able to listen to customer needs and align those needs with our offering
To be able to think on your feet and provide solutions when you meet perceived road blocks with users
An open style of communication with your colleagues in sales, customer success and development - we have a highly collaborative approach to how we run our company
To thrive in a dynamic and fast paced “start-up” environment
About the team Although Countfire is an established product we have the hunger and attitude of a young company - the best of both worlds and perfect if you’re looking for somewhere you can make a real impact. The team comes from a mix of backgrounds. From ex-estimators with a wealth of industry knowledge, to developers and marketers with no estimating experience. But everyone has a lot to offer and are full of ideas and enthusiasm.
We work hard to ‘work smarter’ using new technology tools to increase efficiency across the company, but we appreciate that not everything is in place or is perfect so our team needs to be prepared (and excited!) for change.
Benefits include
Remote working from within the UK with all the equipment you need
25 days holiday, plus your birthday and a month's paid sabbatical every three years
Access to quality health insurance to help you stay healthy and productive
Training and development that will benefit you and the company
Social events (roughly every quarter) to make sure you get to know the team
Location We are fully remote working so welcome applicants from around the UK.
