- Respond to online store questions through a live chat such as Intercom, using approved product information and keeping responses relevant to each conversation.
- Check order status, item details, delivery updates, and available return options against current store information before sharing an answer with the customer.
- Update customer interaction histories in a CRM such as Microsoft Dynamics 365, recording the question, information checked, response provided, and outstanding actions.
- Explain product features, ordering steps, and account navigation in plain language without making promises beyond the information available through approved sources.

- Escalate unresolved complaints, unusual requests, or unavailable answers to the customer service team lead, including relevant context and actions already taken.
- Follow up on open tickets when updates arrive, confirm whether the customer's question has been answered, and close completed conversations with clear notes.
- Meet quality expectations through accurate answers, timely turnaround, complete interaction notes, appropriate escalation, and consistent follow-up on outstanding customer questions.

- Ability to learn customer support systems, customer interaction histories, call handling tools, and chat workflows through guided training.
- Clear spoken and written communication, including the ability to explain instructions without unnecessary technical language.
