Our innovative funding models include traditional evaluation challenges and our flagship Instant Funding approach, which we pioneered to offer unmatched flexibility, scalability, and freedom. 

At our core is a global community of ambitious traders who share a belief that trading should reward skill—not unnecessary hurdles. As we continue to reshape the trading landscape, we're looking for passionate individuals to join us in building the future of fintech. 

 

The Role 

  • Instant Funding is building a new global support team to strengthen quality, speed, and customer experience for our rapidly growing FinTech platform.

  • Work closely with cross-functional teams and management to align on decisions, patterns, and recurring edge cases 
  • Identify recurring scenarios and document precedents 
  • Support onboarding and ongoing learning for new hires 
  • Monitor escalation trends and surface training gaps to support leadership 
  • Diagnose the root cause behind repeated issues and implement improvements 
  • Step into tickets, live chat, or community channels during peaks or sensitive situations to maintain quality and continuity 
  • Provide targeted support on Trustpilot or Prop Firm Match when required to protect service standards or handle complex cases.

Qualifications/Skills Desired 

  • 3+ years of experience in SaaS, FinTech, or high-volume technical support, with at least 1 year in a leadership role. 
  • Excellent written and verbal English, with the ability to simplify complex issues for customers and coach team members. 
  • Strong attention to detail, especially when working with compliance and checks. 
  • Leadership mindset: proactive, reliable, and able to inspire accountability. 
  • Comfortable managing rotational 24/7 shifts in a global team. 
  • Experience with Zendesk, Freshdesk, Intercom, or similar tools is a plus. 
  • Experience handling customer queries in public or semi-public community channels (e.g., forums, chat communities, Discord, Telegram) is a plus. 
  • Comfortable working in a fast-moving, high-growth startup environment where priorities shift quickly, and ownership is expected.

Skills  

  • Excellent written and verbal English (clear, concise, customer-friendly communication) 
  • Strong analytical ability and problem-solving mindset 
  • Close attention to detail when following SOPs and validating customer information
