There are many companies with a mission. We are a mission with a company.

The Zendesk Product Owner - Configuration Administrator will lead the configuration, administration, and ongoing optimization of Point C’s Zendesk platform as we roll it out enterprise-wide.

  • Partner with Claims, Client Services, Account Management, and IT teams as primary stakeholders, gathering sign-offs and ensuring Zendesk configuration meets the needs of each user group
  • Support a multi-phase enterprise rollout of Zendesk, coordinating with IT as the platform transitions and expands organization-wide
  • Manage user roles, permissions, access controls, and data integrity, ensuring governance standards are maintained as the platform scales
  • Support integrations between Zendesk and internal systems; coordinate testing and deployment of system updates and new builds
  • Communicate roadmap priorities, system updates, and change management needs to stakeholders at all levels, including leadership sign-off and team-level rollout support
  • Manage vendor relationships and support cost management and augmentation decisions related to Zendesk
  • Partner with the training and management team to create documentation, lead onboarding sessions, and promote best practices across all user teams
  • Provide ongoing end-user support and troubleshooting, serving as the internal subject matter expert for Zendesk across the organization

Required Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Information Systems, Technology, or related field (or equivalent experience)
  • 2–4+ years CRM administration or product ownership experience
  • Hands-on configuration experience in a CRM platform such as Zendesk (preferred), Salesforce Service Cloud, Freshdesk, HubSpot Service Hub, etc.
  • Familiarity with project management methodologies (Agile preferred) and tools like Jira
  • Strong analytical and documentation skills
  • Experience managing stakeholder requirements
  • Advanced Excel or reporting experience

Preferred Qualifications:

  • CRM certification (e.g., Salesforce Admin, Dynamics Functional Consultant)
  • Experience with integrations (APIs, middleware tools)
  • Experience with workflow automation tools
  • Background working with or supporting customer service operations teams, consumer-facing environments, or service desk functions
