This is an onsite role in Ortigas. Candidates must be flexible to work assigned day shifts and rest days based on business requirements.

  • Complete data updates, order processing and case documentation accurately and efficiently
  • Maintain clear and complete records of customer interactions across relevant systems
  • Monitor assigned cases and complete follow-up within agreed turnaround times
  • Escalate complex, sensitive or unresolved concerns to the appropriate team

  • Strong written English communication skills with the ability to provide clear, professional and empathetic responses
  • High attention to detail with strong organisational, time management and problem-solving skills
  • Comfortable working across multiple systems and managing competing tasks
