Customer Support Agent

Level 1 Customer Support Agent

About Parsel

Parsel is a logistics and operations platform designed to simplify and optimize supply chain processes. By leveraging technology and customer-focused solutions, Parsel helps streamline order management, customer support, and delivery operations.

As a Level 1 Customer Support Agent , you’ll be the first point of contact for customers experiencing delivery issues. Your primary responsibility is to resolve delivery-related questions and exceptions quickly, accurately, and professionally , while following established workflows.

This role is especially suited for someone with hands-on knowledge of US last-mile delivery who understands how packages move from fulfillment through final delivery and can confidently explain shipment statuses and next steps to customers.

This role executes established policies and workflows — it does not define them.

-

In transit

-

Out for delivery

Delayed/stalled shipments

Address-related exceptions

Communicate shipment status, next steps, and expectations clearly and empathetically

-

Coordinate with carriers and internal teams when additional investigation is required

-

Escalate issues appropriately when they fall outside established workflows

-

Accurately document customer interactions, shipment details, and resolutions

Ideal Candidate Profile

The strongest candidates will have a combination of customer service experience + US last-mile delivery knowledge . Someone who has worked directly with customers on US package deliveries, tracking issues, carrier exceptions, and delivery problems is strongly preferred over someone whose experience is primarily in trucking, freight, or B2B logistics.
