Company Overview
We’re on a mission to revolutionise homeownership by building an AI-powered PropTech platform that makes managing a home effortless.
Homeownership should be simple, but today it’s anything but. From handling maintenance and repairs to finding the right service providers and staying on top of admin, managing a home is fragmented, time-consuming and inefficient.
We believe there’s a better way.
Our platform combines automation, expert guidance and seamless access to trusted services. By leveraging AI and proprietary home data, we’re redefining how homes are managed. What was once a reactive process becomes proactive, intelligent and stress-free.
We’re VC-backed and building the foundation for a scalable, AI-native platform that will transform home management.
Position Overview
As a Customer Support & Operations Associate, you will play a key role in ensuring a smooth and trusted experience for both homeowners and service providers using the Hey Alfie platform.
You’ll handle customer queries, help coordinate quotes and bookings, and maintain accurate records in our systems. You’ll work closely with the wider team, taking ownership of workflows while escalating more complex issues.
This is a hands-on role for someone who is hardworking, empathetic and organised.
