Job Description
About Chatstrike Chatstrike helps insurance agencies hire faster. Our platform uses AI, automation, texting, job promotion, scheduling, and recruiting workflows to help insurance agency owners turn applicants into interviews and new hires. We’re a small, fast-growing team helping agency owners and recruiting teams across brands like Aflac and Colonial Life improve their hiring process. Our customers are busy, practical, relationship-driven people who need a partner who can help them get results — not just software. We’re early, lean, and growing fast — Chatstrike’s annual recurring revenue has grown more than 500% year over year. This is a chance to join before the customer operations function is fully built and help shape what it becomes. About the Role We’re looking for a Client Growth & Operations Associate to work directly with our founder and CEO. This is an early-career role for someone with roughly 2–5 years of professional experience who wants to grow quickly, take ownership, work directly with customers, and help build the operations function at a fast-growing software company. For the right person, this role can grow into a Head of Operations position managing a team of your own. You’ll be part customer success manager, part sales partner, part product operator, and part founder’s right hand. You’ll work directly with insurance agency owners, help them get better recruiting results, support new customers referred by channel partners, and turn customer feedback into product improvements. You’ll also get hands-on experience helping build an AI-powered software product used by real customers every day. You won’t just answer questions — you’ll help identify customer needs, design better workflows, and work with our engineering team to turn customer problems into product improvements. This role is ideal for someone who has the client-facing polish of a consultant, the urgency of a startup operator, and the warmth of a great customer success partner. Work Setup & Travel This is a hybrid role based in Dublin, Ohio at COHatch . You’ll work from home part of the time and spend time in person with the founder for training, customer strategy, product discussions, and team collaboration. You should also expect to travel to a handful of insurance, recruiting, and customer conferences throughout the year. This role requires strong responsiveness and flexibility, especially during customer onboarding, urgent customer situations, and conference periods.
