Support Team Lead
Support Team Leads directly manage an average of eight L1 Support Geniuses. Our L1s are the primary points of contact supporting the LevelUp platform for users, merchants, partners, and internal teams. As their manager, the Team Lead will be expected to serve as an escalation point, a deeply knowledgeable resource for questions in Slack, and the L1s’ guide as they pursue growth into more specialized roles.
The Team Lead will work alongside two other current Team Leads in order to manage a team of 24 agents (and growing!), which includes overnight and weekend agents. Note that the number of agents (and needed leads!) may increase as our business needs evolve, so any Team Lead should be ready to manage more agents than the average or current expectation.
