Customer Service, Team Lead (HomeStars)
At Angi, we have one simple mission: Get all your home service jobs done well. That’s how we’ve helped over 150 million homeowners care for their homes over the last 25+ years. Today, our network has grown to over 200,000 skilled local pros — and our platform has made it easier than ever to find the right one for your project, from repairs to renovations and everything in between.
Instapro Group, an Angi partner, is comprised of Europe & Canada's leading building & home trades marketplaces; Homestars is the Canadian brand, based in Toronto. Instapro Group is looking to hire a Customer Service Team Lead to join the Instapro.com Customer Service team.
