Position Overview:

The Home Repair Customer Advocate (Repair Management Coordinator) provides world-class customer service on first notice of loss calls (FNOLC) and supports customers calling about existing repair work orders. The position operates in a 24/7 environment, with hours spanning seven days a week from 6:00 a.m. to 12:00 midnight, and requires schedule flexibility, including evenings, weekends, holidays, and occasional overtime.

Home Repair Customer Advocates focus on resolving in-progress issues, providing clear and accurate updates, and supporting customers who may be frustrated or stressed due to repair delays or complications. Advocates bring strong emotional intelligence, resilience, and good judgment to each call - guiding customers through complex repair situations, owning the experience from start to finish, setting clear expectations, and resolving as much as possible in a single interaction.

• Support customers calling about in-progress repairs by reviewing claim and work order details, providing clear updates, and addressing questions or concerns.
• Navigate complex and emotionally charged customer interactions with empathy, professionalism, and sound judgment.
• Take ownership of each customer interaction by setting clear expectations, resolving questions within scope, and working toward single-call resolution whenever possible.
• Troubleshoot and isolate reported issues to ensure appropriate next steps are taken and unnecessary dispatches are avoided.
• Clearly and thoroughly document all customer interactions, claim activity, and actions taken to ensure accuracy and continuity.
• Communicate effectively with customers, contractors, and internal stakeholders to gather information and provide timely updates.
• Deliver consistent, high-quality customer experiences that support customer retention and contract renewals.
• Accurately complete data entry related to customer accounts, work orders, and actions taken during calls.
• Meet individual and team performance expectations, including quality, productivity, and customer experience metrics.
• Identify issues, delays, or discrepancies that may impact the customer experience and take appropriate action within established guidelines.
• Provide feedback to leadership on customer trends, pain points, and opportunities to improve services, processes, or procedures.
• Comply with all company policies, procedures, and regulatory requirements.
• Participate in ongoing training, coaching, and development to maintain proficiency and adapt to evolving business needs.
