The Team

At Yoco, our Technical Support team plays a vital role in empowering entrepreneurs to succeed. This isn’t just another customer support team - it’s a group of dedicated specialists who understand the value they bring by ensuring our customers have the support they need, exactly when they need it.

Our team’s focus is not only to resolve issues but also to learn from every interaction, helping us refine and improve our products to make the Yoco experience seamless and delightful.

The Opportunity

You’ll be at the forefront of supporting our merchants in the food and beverage industry, specialising in our Table point-of-sale solution and related payment products.

After completing an in-depth onboarding and training program, you’ll be equipped to assist customers with some of their most complex challenges. You'll work as part of a tight-knit, collaborative team that shares knowledge and supports one another in delivering an exceptional customer experience.

You'll also have the opportunity to work across teams, contributing insights to improve our products and advocating for the needs of the merchants we serve.

In a typical week, you will:

Provide technical support via phone, email, web, and in-app chat, ensuring timely and effective resolution.
Specialise in troubleshooting Yoco’s Table POS solution, supporting merchants with setup, transactions, menu management, and stock control.
Assist with networking and hardware issues, diagnosing connectivity problems that may impact point-of-sale performance.
Log and track support tickets, ensuring issues are escalated appropriately and resolved within SLAs.
Analyse support trends, identifying recurring issues and working to prevent future problems.
Conduct system walkthroughs and training sessions, ensuring merchants can confidently use the Table POS system.
Support escalations and complex cases, working closely with internal teams to resolve critical merchant challenges.
Contribute to our knowledge base, improving self-service resources to reduce merchant friction.

The people we’re looking for

We’re looking for brave people who want to grow. And as Yoco grows we hope they stay with us, long term.

Growing can be a daunting task and it’s not for everyone. We never stop pushing, we break things to rebuild, we challenge ourselves, and inspire each other to push further.

So, who are you? You’re a curious problem-solver with a passion for doing good. You’re bright and grounded, experimental and brave. You play open cards and get stuck in. You’re not afraid of change. You close the loop.
