Key elements of your mission:
You are the first point of contact for our users and handle all customer queries in a friendly and efficient manner - topics might include product features, technical issues or billing. Most questions will be handled in written form via our CRM, but you should also don’t be shy when it comes to supporting our clients on the phone.
Ensure user satisfaction by identifying and tailoring solutions to their individual needs, making sure they receive a timely response and suggesting best practices to them.
You monitor and address community questions and requests and interact with the OpenProject community on an ongoing basis (primarily through forums and within the OpenProject software)

Provide (online) training and demos to our users.
What you´ll bring
You are proficient in both the English and German language (both written and verbal) - you will be working with our clients and users in both languages. If you’re also proficient in French or Spanish, that would be a big bonus.

What awaits you
The best of both worlds: the creative challenges and learning opportunities of a start-up combined with the financial stability of a “grown-up” company in a team of dedicated professionals.

Contributing to an open source project with high visibility and transparency within the developer world (our software code is freely available on Github).
