Customer Support Chat Specialist

Company Description Givebutter is the most-loved nonprofit fundraising and CRM platform, empowering millions of changemakers to raise more, pay less, and give better. Nonprofits use Givebutter to replace multiple tools so they can launch fundraisers and events, use donation forms and donor management (CRM), send emails and text blasts—all in one place. Use of the Givebutter platform is completely free with a 100% transparent tip-or-fee model. Givebutter has been certified as a Great Place to Work® every year since 2021, and is the #1 rated nonprofit software company on G2 across multiple categories. Our mission is to empower the changemaker in all of us. We believe giving should be fun, so you’ll want to do it again, and we also believe that work should be fun, so that you’ll have the greatest impact. We are excited to hear from talented people who want to work with other talented people in making the world a butter place—and have fun along the way. Role Description Givebutter is looking for a Chat/Email Support Specialist with a positive attitude, attention to detail, and the ability to understand what a user is really asking - not just what they typed - and respond with clarity and confidence. As a member of our Customer Support team, you will have the opportunity to support the fundraising efforts of a large and diverse group of NPOs, ranging from small nonprofits to large educational institutions to Fortune 500 companies. The primary responsibility of this role will be responding to inquiries from current users via live chats and emails. We are an industry leader in the support space with high expectations. Our first response time for live chats is <2 minutes. Live chats account for 80% of your workload. CSAT is >96%, and IQS scores must be 98% or above. This role requires strong problem-solving skills, sound judgment, and confidence, even with a rapidly changing product. You will regularly encounter questions that don’t have an obvious or documented answer. Successful candidates are comfortable analyzing situations in real time, asking thoughtful follow-up questions, and working toward a solution even when the path forward isn’t immediately clear. We’re looking for someone who takes ownership of the user experience during every chat and email. This means actively working through problems, thinking beyond the surface question, and ensuring the user leaves the conversation feeling confident about the solution because you genuinely invested in their concern and resolution. You’ll have access to internal resources, documentation, and a supportive team - but you’ll be expected to navigate conversations independently and confidently. You should also be comfortable multitasking: researching, navigating tools, and communicating clearly all at once. If you do your best work when you have time to research before responding, prefer to use a decision tree, or when conversations follow a predictable pattern, this isn't the role you're looking for. If the thought of waking up every day and getting to "help people help people" excites you, then we look forward to hearing from you. 😀 This is a direct-hire, permanent position.
