About the Client

We're helping a company in the fintech and digital assets industry find an experienced Customer Support Specialist to support users of its digital assets platform and associated crypto payment card.

The company operates within the evolving financial technology space, providing digital financial solutions that connect traditional payment services with cryptocurrency and digital assets.

As the business continues to grow, they're looking for their first dedicated Customer Support Specialist to take ownership of incoming customer inquiries, resolve issues, and help establish a reliable, high-quality customer support function.

The Role

We're looking for a Customer Support Specialist – Fintech & Crypto Payments who combines excellent customer service skills with a strong understanding of financial products, digital platforms, payment transactions, and ideally cryptocurrency.

You'll be the first point of contact for customers using the platform and its associated crypto card, helping them navigate account setup, verification, platform functionality, card usage, payments, deposits, withdrawals, and other transaction-related concerns.

The majority of support will be handled through live chat and written communication, with occasional phone or video calls when customers require more hands-on assistance.

As the first person joining this function, you'll be expected to take ownership of incoming cases and resolve issues independently wherever possible, following established SOPs and escalation procedures.

This is not a generic customer service role. We're looking for someone who can understand the product, investigate problems, identify solutions, and confidently guide customers through financial and technical issues.

Ideal Candidate Profile

You're someone who genuinely enjoys helping customers but also has the technical curiosity and financial-product knowledge needed to investigate and resolve problems.

You're comfortable explaining how digital financial platforms work, guiding customers through account and transaction issues, and troubleshooting payment card concerns. You don't simply pass difficult questions to another team—you investigate, follow the appropriate procedures, and take ownership of the issue through to resolution.

Ideally, you've worked professionally within a crypto or digital assets environment. However, we're also open to strong candidates from fintech, digital banking, or payments who have a solid understanding of cryptocurrency through personal use.

As the first dedicated customer support hire, you're comfortable working independently, following established processes, and helping shape how the function develops.

Most importantly, you're resourceful, detail-oriented, calm under pressure, and committed to delivering an excellent customer experience.

Why Join?

• Join a growing business operating at the intersection of fintech, digital assets, and payment technology.

• Become the company's first dedicated Customer Support Specialist and play an important role in developing the function.

• Gain hands-on exposure to digital financial products, crypto cards, payment processes, and platform operations.

• Take meaningful ownership of customer cases rather than working within a narrowly defined support function.

• Collaborate directly with operations, compliance, payments, and technical teams.

• Work remotely in a role that values independence, initiative, and problem-solving.
