Billing Administrator for SaaS (Chargebee & Paddle)
Budget: $2 – $8 USD
** Agencies, do not apply. Individuals only. **
We are a SaaS based software company looking for someone to serve as our Billing Administrator and assist with other functions. This is a full-time position working through 4PM ET Monday-Friday, very long-term. If you are not looking for a long-term job (for the next 2+ years), do not apply to this position.
We are currently using Chargebee (but migrating to Paddle in the near future). Currently we have a few team members managing different parts of the billing process but we need one Billing Administrator to oversee all of this.
This person must have experience with Chargebee. Paddle experience is not needed as you will have time to learn it as we go through the migration.
The Billing Administrator will be responsible for:
-- Sending Invoices
-- Reactivating Subscriptions
-- Issuing Refunds
-- Cancelling Accounts
-- Upgrades/Downgrades
-- Record Hygiene (Changing JOE to Joe, looking for duplicate signups)
-- Trial Extensions
-- Contact Changes
-- Changing Next Billing Date
-- Billing Calls (just a few)
That part of the process isn't that difficult. The difficult part is taking a call from a customer who thinks that they are entitled to a 100% refund even though the terms state that they are only due 25% since they waited 2 months to cancel. I need to know that you have experience with these types of calls and that you can manage it. We direct everyone to contact us through email so that we have written record of the conversation but some do require a phone call.
ADDITIONAL TASK
Although this job is full-time, the Billing part will just be a few hours a day. In addition to providing the billing functions, which additional roles do you have extensive experience with and would be able to assist with?
-- Managing Email Marketing Campaigns
-- Optimizing Landing Pages
-- Statistical Analysis
-- Churn Reduction
-- Chat Support
-- Quality Assurance Testing
-- Lead Tracking
-- Sales
-- Software Training
-- Customer Success
Other Knowledge
Please reply with a Yes or No beside each item. Based on your experience will depend on which additional tasks will be assigned to you. If helpful, provide additional details.
