About Wolt

At Wolt, we create technology that brings joy, simplicity and earnings to the neighborhoods of the world. In 2014 we started with delivery of restaurant food. Now we’re building the delivery of (almost) everything and you’ll find us in over 500 cities in 30 countries around the world. In 2022 we joined forces with DoorDash and together we keep on dreaming big and expanding across the globe.

Working at Wolt isn’t always easy, but it’s definitely exciting. Here you’ll learn more, build more, and ship more than in most other companies. You’ll be challenged a lot, but also have a lot of fun on the way. So, if you’re a self-starter with drive and entrepreneurial spirit, this could be the ride of your life.

Purpose 

Our Support Team is the glue that holds together the Wolt marketplace and ensures that poor experiences are turned into good ones, so that we can deliver industry leading customer experiences. We ensure that the operations between customers, restaurant partners and courier partners all run smoothly. As Support Team Lead you will manage a team of local Support Associates, develop the structures and processes required for the team to perform well, develop a culture where people thrive under pressure and inspire the highest-quality standard of service for our customers and partners. 

You will lead a team of 20-25 people, working closely with fellow team leads and cross-functional partners, and report directly to the Support Manager.

Core responsibilities

  • People management: You will lead and develop a team of 20-25 people and ensure they are competent, motivated, engaged and satisfied in their roles. You will also make sure the team has fun and enjoys coming to work. You will be a contact point between the global and local organisation and will continuously identify and implement best practices to ensure the team is always performing to the highest standards. You will also support succession planning and proactively help individuals develop and grow into more senior roles. 
  • Recruiting, mentoring and managing: You will find the best talent with the right attitude while creating an environment where the team can develop through encouragement and empowerment. You will be providing performance feedback and making sure your team meets KPIs. 
  • Leading by example and setting the standard: At Wolt, our Support Team knows that customer interactions serve a larger purpose than simply fixing problems.

Knowing the inner mechanics of our customer service systems, you will collaborate closely with our other teams to meet the needs of our customers and partners. You will also work closely with the other team leads locally and globally to ensure we work seamlessly at scale.  
  • Relating and communicating: You will identify the needs and relevant tone of voice to each of our customers (courier partners, customers, and merchants) that are reaching out to us.
  • Analysing and optimising: You will look for patterns in incoming requests, translating it to actions and improvements, and communicating it to external partners and internal stakeholders. 
  • Getting stuff done: We operate in a live environment, and you will have to make decisions quickly and on the fly, and operate well under pressure. You will need to be able to dive into the details to solve problems in the moment, while also being able to pull back and focus on the bigger picture.
