What you’ll get up to as our Customer Service & Community Manager
Acting as community manager for our online marketplace—moderating listings, messages and member profiles to make sure they meet our guidelines and terms, and taking action on anything that doesn’t

Keeping members safe by spotting and acting on scams, fraud, prohibited items and suspicious behaviour, and escalating safeguarding concerns where needed
Providing customer service to marketplace members via email, live chat, phone and social media—helping with accounts, listings, memberships, payments and safety queries
Reviewing reports from members, responding fairly and consistently, and taking appropriate action on accounts
Building and engaging our marketplace community on social channels, and helping shape our safety advice, help guides and FAQs
Using smart tools and systems, including moderation queues and ticketing, to stay organised and work efficiently
Spotting recurring issues and emerging trends, flagging member feedback, and suggesting improvements to guidelines, processes and the product
Leading on support and moderation analytics, ticket categorisation, and sharing key KPIs
Acting as the voice of the community, sharing insights that shape the product and member journey
If this sounds like the new challenge you are looking, we would love to hear from you!

Previous customer service experience, ideally across several channels (email, live chat, phone and social media)
Experience in content moderation, community management or trust and safety—ideally on a marketplace or online community
Excellent written communication skills—empathetic, clear, and friendly, with the ability to adapt your tone
Sound judgement and a sharp eye for detail—confident making fair, consistent decisions and spotting when something doesn’t look right

Curious, solution-focused, and tech-savvy
A self-starter who’s comfortable working remotely and independently
