We are looking for a Customer Service Coordinator (CSC) that knows a customer service department top to bottom including keen order entry skills. This is a “hands on” position. At Alleguard, our CSC will participate in entering customer orders, act as a customer liaison, provide product information and resolve any emerging problems that our customer accounts might face, doing so with accuracy and efficiency.

Please do not submit a resume if you are not up for the challenge or are looking for a "shift work" type position! We are looking for team members to take our CS Department to the next level. Keeping an upbeat and positive attitude with customers is a must!
