34SP.com is hiring: Community Outreach

Who we are

We’re a web hosting company with nearly 20 years experience of providing quality web hosting and domain name services. Our motto is ‘exceptional service and support’ and we live it every day.
Our main offices are based in the vibrant Northern Quarter district of Manchester, where you will find more cafes, bars and restaurants than you can shake a DNS record at. Our team currently comprises 22 genuinely awesome individuals. We try to get together for fun company events on a monthly basis. Sometimes we go to the pub, sometimes we go bowling. Sometimes we do both.

What we do

We host thousands of websites for a mainly UK audience of personal and small business clients. Our clients depend on us for rock solid, around the clock, quality support – served up with a cheerful smile. Even on days where the server crashed, the hard disk data is unrecoverable, we’re all out of coffee, and it’s raining (hey it’s Manchester). Especially on those days.
We don’t work from predefined support scripts. We rely on smart, creative individuals who listen to each customer and find solutions for them, when they need it. Customers come first at 34SP.com. We’d move mountains to help our customers. Thankfully England has no mountains – which makes tweaking Apache settings and php.ini files that much easier.

Who you are

You’re someone who is completely customer focused. No valley too low, no river too deep, no mountain, oh wait, we already covered mountains. You’re excited to speak with our clients be it over email, via the phone or maybe even in person. You’re adaptable, reliable, friendly, charming, geeky, cool, fun – all those good things. You’ve got more? Fantastic, we want
to hear from you.

What you need to know about this position

We are looking for a Community Outreach whizz. Someone who will communicate our brand online and offline to both new and existing customers. You’ll formally be a part of our marketing team. You will have great English coupled with a proficiency in typing. The successful applicant will also have first rate interpersonal skills. The meek and timid need not apply. A working knowledge of website basics (WordPress, email etc) is a bonus, but not essential by any means.

Did we mention we love our customers? We can teach you all our proprietary secrets and technical wizardry – we’re nice like that – but we can’t teach you a positive customer attitude.
