ScaleSourceEmpowering franchises with top-tier remote talent to scale smarter, faster, and more efficiently. #RemoteHiring
• Location: Remote - International • Schedule: Monday–Friday, U.S. Business Hours (EST/CST/PST) • Employment Type: Full-Time, Long-Term • We connect professionals around the world with full-time remote opportunities inside U.S.-based companies. • Our goal is simple. We build long-term teams. Every role we open is designed for someone to become a real part of a company’s day-to-day operations, not just temporary support. • We look for people who want stability, growth, and a place where their work actually matters. • Here is what the best candidates for this role have in common: they describe customers as people they are responsible for, not tickets they process. They track their own follow-ups without being told to. They have de-escalated a difficult call without needing a manager. And when asked how many outbound contacts they made per day, they give a real number. • This is not for you if you have only handled inbound calls reactively. It is not for you if your definition of follow-up is sending one email and waiting. And it is not for you if you need daily instructions to know what to work on.
