Call Center Representative - Senior
- Full-time
Company Description
Well, well, well. Look who it is...
We’ve been waiting for you to swing by and check us out. We have some jobs here at Andigo that could be a great fit for you, since you have a hankering for a fast-paced, get-it-done workplace and a passion for helping people, just like the rest of our team.
But before we get into all that, a little about us. While you may not have heard our name – say it with us, “Andigo sounds like indigo” – we’ve expanded to 40,000 members and lots of sponsor organizations (businesses with a bank-at-work perk for their employees). Good folks from the greater Chicago area and across country.
Did you catch that? That one word you won’t see big banks use? “Members,” that’s right. Andigo is a not-for-profit, member-owned credit union. We exist for one and only one reason: to help our members achieve their goals whenever, wherever they go. Because we’re not a bank, we don’t drive up profits just because shareholders demand it. Instead, we focus on driving up member happiness through low loan rates, high deposit rates and low or no fee products and services. Makes banks seem like kind of a bummer, huh? That’s why we need to get the word out about all of the great opposite-of-bummer things we’re doing for our members here at Andigo.
That’s why we need you.
You’re someone who sees a wrong and rights it. You take work seriously but not yourself. You want to surround yourself with other highly motivated, highly fun people who want to grow Andigo. You want to prove that when we set a goal to make a difference in our members’ lives. Together we truly can. That’s not easy, but you already know that because you’re a person who loves a challenge as much as you love top compensation and A+ benefits for your hard work.
We think you belong here, do you? Thought so. Let’s go!
