Customer Success Placement

As a Customer Success Assistant, you’ll be involved in all aspects of the business – ranging from Sales and Project Management, to Customer Service and Consultancy. At the forefront of our Customer Success team, you'll be the first person that our customers come to for advice and help, so it’ll be down to you to be a ProspectSoft ambassador.

Whether it be managing a project, or consulting with customers during the Onboarding process, you’ll be constantly establishing new relationships and building customer rapport. You’ll also gain real insight and understanding into business processes through interacting with customers on a daily basis.

If you can listen to our customers to guide them to the right solution and help them overcome their business challenges, then you’re the person we’re looking for!

Some of the things you’ll be doing:

  • Building Customer Rapport – Each element of the role is strongly focused on communicating with our customer base. Having the ability to build relationships and trust with customers is a vital skill you’ll adopt.
  • Onboarding Customers – Getting customers up to speed with the Prospect system is critical to ensure ongoing success. You’ll need to understand and interpret the customer’s business objectives and processes to ensure each Onboarding is successful.
  • Customer Service – At ProspectSoft, we pride ourselves on exceptional customer service, and every member of staff contributes to this. This will involve providing timely answers and assistance in a professional and friendly manner that reflects the company's core values.
  • Business Development – Whilst sales isn’t the primary focus of Customer Success, it’s important to be able to identify business development opportunities that would add further value to the customer’s solution. Whether it be System Reviews, Onboarding Experiences or Points Packs, you’ll help our customers get the most benefit out of the system.
  • Software Demonstrations – As the year progresses, you’ll confidently demonstrate our software to customers. Understanding customer requirements is an essential part of delivering high quality, relevant demonstrations in a persuasive manner.
  • Project Management – Delivering software solutions is a core part of the business. In this role, you’ll be playing a crucial part by scoping and documenting requirements to support customer and internal projects. Managing these tasks will require impeccable organisation skills to ensure you successfully manage and meet desired timescales and internal deadlines. Effectively liaising and co-ordinating with team members across departments, and most importantly, the customer, is crucial to ensure a successful outcome.

What you’ll need:

  • Excellent time management & organisation skills
  • Excellent communication skills (verbal & written)
  • Excellent IT systems knowledge (including email, Excel, Office etc.)
  • Motivated by targets & deadlines
  • Strong focus on delivering excellent customer service
  • Strong attention to detail
  • Enthusiastic approach & positive attitude at all times
  • Ability to solve problems
  • Completed a minimum of 2 years of your undergraduate degree but will not have graduated at the start of your placement

  • Personal Development – Managers and Directors at ProspectSoft want to ensure that you gain the most out of your placement. Throughout your year, you’ll be working alongside industry experts who’ll guide and support you along your placement journey. Plus, they’ll encourage you to work on other side projects to boost your CV, like passing online certifications!
  • Real Responsibility – You don’t have to worry about being the placement that gets stuck doing the coffee run! Right from the get-go, you’re thrown into the deep end and given real responsibility, being treated and respected just like all the other permanent employees are. You’re given tasks that influence the business’ reputation, success and growth, and your skills are hugely valued and appreciated.
  • Enhanced Employment Prospects – Undertaking a placement year means you’ll be given real responsibilities and opportunities that will be both challenging and exciting. From this exposure, you’ll develop transferable skills that you just wouldn’t acquire at University, so it’ll stand you in good stead upon graduation!
  • Unique Office Atmosphere – The friendly, young and energetic atmosphere here at ProspectSoft is something we feel makes us unique! We’re a supportive company that treasures every single employee. We’re a sociable bunch too that know how to have a great time both in the office, and outside the walls of work! Our Social Committee ensures there’s plenty of events going on throughout the year to provide all sorts of perks for our lovely employees.
  • Pizza Fridays – Who doesn’t love Pizza? The last Friday of every month combines food and learning! Bringing the whole company together, we learn about the exciting features our Development team have been working on recently in the software, and simultaneously get to indulge in endless amounts of Domino’s pizza!
  • Beer Friday – Every Friday, ProspectSoft finish work half an hour early, crack open the beer fridge and socialise! Employees can kick start their Fridays and choose a refreshing alcoholic or soft beverage they fancy, to sit back, relax and enjoy! We also love a good quiz!
  • Departmental Socials – Each department often heads out for different socials after work. Whether it’s a curry night or getting involved in a sport such as trampolining or rock-climbing, every department loves to bring their teams together for a good laugh and sociable catch up! But socials don’t have to be set to individual departments; we like to mix! If the Dev team head out trampolining and the Marketing team fancy joining, then they’re always welcome – the more the merrier!
  • Summer Events – ProspectSoft love to host a sunny BBQ, attend the Henley Royal Regatta, or organise afterwork drinks in the sunshine. Whatever they choose to do, ProspectSoft love a summer get together!
  • Christmas Party – Every year, ProspectSoft host a Christmas party! The whole company gathers together for a night of celebrations…it’s a bash not to be missed!
  • Placement Do’s – To welcome placements to ProspectSoft, the office head down to the local pub for a few drinks after their first day. It’s a great way for everyone to mingle and get to know each other! When the time comes to say goodbye, the company heads into Oxford for a leaving do, which involves plenty of food, drinks and dancing - it’s a great (and very emotional) send off!
