The Role

Duration: 1 month (with a possibility of extension to 3-6 months based on performance)

This is a full-time position beginning in March 2021 and we will be considering applicants on a rolling basis.

The Customer Success team is essential to helping our client’s feel supported and Purlos maintain it’s position as one of London’s fastest growing Startups (1000% YoY).

We are looking for a Customer Success Intern (CSI) to ensure the smooth onboarding of new clients, to support them through the first 90 days of their lifecycle, and to drive upselling & cross-selling opportunities.

Ultimately, you will help us to drive growth at Purlos by increasing the “renewal rates” of existing clients, and drive revenue through up-selling and cross-selling. The promotion path is from to Customer Success Manager (CSM) Senior CSM (SCSM) and then up to Success Director (SD).

To let you know a little bit about our approach; we have created an amazing admissions platform that is for educational institutions to help increase revenue by reducing student drop-outs. Our “human-assisted” digital assistant connects to students through WhatsApp to help answer questions for prospective students. More importantly, we use A.I. to analyse the conversations and highlight the most “at-risk” students to help our clients retain more students and grow.
