Client Intake Specialist

Description

Make the first conversation count.

We are hiring Client Intake Specialists to join a growing remote team supporting individuals who are seeking professional assistance during serious and often stressful situations.

This high-touch, phone-based customer service role lets you listen, communicate clearly, show empathy, and guide people through the next steps, making a real difference.

• Explain the intake process, client journey, and expected next steps
• Schedule consultations and appointments
• Follow up with clients who have completed enrollment but have not yet connected with the appropriate team
• Assist clients who have not completed the enrollment process
• Listen to client concerns and objections and respond with empathy
• De-escalate challenging conversations while maintaining professionalism
• Educate clients on the process and next steps without providing professional or legal advice
• Accurately document every interaction in the CRM
• Help clients obtain required documents and records when needed
• Escalate complaints and sensitive situations according to established procedures
