Since 2017, Flourish has been on a mission to help financial advisors better secure the financial futures of their clients. We focus on independent Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs), delivering financial products that advisors can't easily access today through beautiful, scalable, and easy-to-use technology.Today, we work with over 850 RIAs that collectively represent more than $1.5T in assets under management across two products: Flourish Annuities and Flourish Cash. Headquartered in New York City, we are an independently-operating, wholly-owned subsidiary of MassMutual Life Insurance Company.Read on if you are interested in joining a small, highly-collaborative, rapidly-growing startup-backed by the support and stability of a Fortune 500 company.About YouYou are an ambitious self-starter looking to join a fast-growing fintech startup as a client support specialist. You love providing truly white-glove client support, whether via phone, email or chat, and have excellent communication skills (both written and verbal). You have a penchant for explaining complex, technical details to non-technical audiences. You have an indefatigable approach to problem solving and see every client interaction as an opportunity to improve the business overall.Beyond providing support, you are also excited to contribute to every aspect of a growing client support organization, from optimizing the technology we use to preparing reporting to thinking strategically about how we can provide better service, more efficiently. You also love collecting client feedback and sharing with our product organization to help us understand client requests and act as a key voice in improving the product.About the RoleAs a client support representative, you'll provide client support via phone, email and chat from 9am to 5pm PT / 11am to 7pm CT, leveraging both internal and external tools.

You'll partner with our product team and work closely with engineers to help resolve thorny issues within a dynamic, always-changing environment.Equally as important as providing white-glove support will be contributing to our client support organization. This will include building the playbook we'll use to scale our client support organization, tagging and tracking client issues to identify trends, reporting on metrics used to efficiently run our business, and developing and maintaining internal and external client support materials, from email templates to phone scripts to client-facing FAQs.
