Customer Onboarding Specialist - Spain (Temp contract)

👀 This role is for a temporary contract of 9 months 

Let’s face it: out-of-pocket expenses suck. And manual expense spreadsheets are old-school. No one wants to wait until payday to be reimbursed for something they bought for work, and finance teams have better things to do than spend hours tapping away on Excel. At Pleo, we’re on a mission to change this. We’re here to make spend management surprisingly effective and empowering – for finance teams and employees.

We’re doing away with an outdated business process to end out-of-pocket spending, encourage autonomy and give finance teams trust in employees. You'll be selling the SaaS tool (company spending solution) that comes with physical pre-paid cards that are then distributed to all employees of the company. But Pleo’s about more than just paying for stuff. You’ll be helping our customers simplify and streamline their invoices, reimbursements, subscriptions – the lot.

As a Pleo Onboarding Specialist, you hold the key to unlocking the full potential of our cutting-edge solutions for businesses across Europe. Your mission is to oversee and execute the onboarding process with precision and finesse, collaborating seamlessly with both customers and internal teams to ensure a smooth and memorable journey from start to finish.

Picture yourself as the bridge between technology and human connection, understanding each customer's unique requirements, and configuring Pleo to match their needs perfectly. You'll be the go-to expert for technical queries, providing consultation, sharing best practices, and conducting training to drive user adoption that allows our customers to take their business to new levels. Your role goes beyond just technical prowess – it's about building strong relationships and ensuring customer success becomes a powerful reference point for the world to see. Your genuine curiosity and exceptional problem-solving skills will shine through as you navigate multiple onboarding projects with ease, all while staying up-to-date with the latest industry trends.
