Who is Boulevard?

Boulevard provides the first and only client experience platform for appointment-based, self-care businesses. We empower our customers to give their clients more of the magical moments that matter most.

Before launching in 2016, our founders spent months interviewing salon managers and working behind front desks to understand their pain points so we could design a modern, user-friendly platform that meets the unique needs of their business. Our roots may be in hair salons, but we are built for the broader self-care industry, including many types of salons, spas, medspa, barbershops, and more. Our technology not only helps our customers survive but thrive. Take a look at how we (and YOU) can make that happen. 

We have an insatiable curiosity and embrace experimentation. We believe that simple solutions require the most sophistication, and we design each and every detail to maximize potential, power, and impact. Do our values match? Read through our story and what we value the most.

Our team values and celebrates our diverse backgrounds. Being open about who we are and what we do allows us to do the best work of our lives. We believe in equal opportunity for all, and you should too.

Come do the best work of your life at Boulevard.

Support is the first line of contact for customers reaching out for assistance and is responsible for supporting and strengthening business relationships with Boulevard customers. Customer satisfaction is never sacrificed while meeting service-level expectations. Whether business owners, front desk users, or service providers, our Support team is available to answer customer questions through multiple contact channels. 

T1 Team Leads contribute to the continual improvement of team efficiency, growth in skills, and customer experience by resolving complex T1 tickets, owning escalations from other T1 squads, supporting T1 Managers, and contributing to team enablement.

What you’ll do here:

  • Spend ~10-20% of the day supporting T1 Managers by:
    • Contributing to knowledge, SOP, and macro management
    • Surfacing process and product improvements 
    • Conducting peer enablement and mentorship 
    • Occasionally running team meetings in Support Manager absence
    • Assisting Support leadership with ad hoc duties and projects

    • Effectively scope, troubleshoot, anticipate downstream impact, and resolve technical issues while displaying ownership and empathy.
    • Distill and effectively communicate technical information to customers with varying technical acumen.
    • Exercise adaptable communication skills, independently determining when to modify existing macros or create new responses to fit each individual case.
    • De-escalate spicy interactions with confidence (including escalations from more junior T1 specialists), effectively escalating through defined channels to resolve issues when necessary.
    • Flex into other T1 ticket queues as needed based on volume fluctuations
  • Identify incidents and accurately follow incident response protocol as Support Incident Commander (rotating with T1 Managers)
  • Demonstrate agility, resilience, and the ability to exercise good judgement and critical thinking under pressure.
  • Provide valuable customer insights by surfacing trends, churn risks, and upsell opportunities.
  • Collaborate effectively with your immediate remote team and cross-functional partners, including Finance, Engineering, Product, and other Customer Experience teams.

What you need to thrive:

  • Technical aptitude: Previous experience supporting a complex technical platform that manages data, reporting, users, scheduling, payments, inventory or a combination of several of these using internal resources and external tools such as Postmark. Well-versed in incident response at the Tier 1 Support level.
  • Joy for details: Every i is dotted, every t is crossed. Our customers mind the details for their clients, and we do the same for them, with pleasure!
  • Let’s-do-this energy: Bring your customer support hat, let your curiosity shine, and jump into our entrepreneurial, fast-paced environment!
  • High EQ: You’re a natural peer leader, modeling how to effectively navigate internal relationships and complex customer interactions by utilizing your versatile communication style, sophisticated interpersonal skills, and displaying a resilient spirit.
  • Outstanding customer rapport: Give life to our Boulevard values by personifying the brand in every interaction, delighting customers and remaining mindful of the customer experience with your exceptional verbal and written communication skills.
  • Patience, Positivity, Problem solving: Acting as a peer leader on the Support team requires an extra dose of patience, meeting challenges or conflict with a solutions-oriented approach that solves the immediate issue while planning future prevention.
