As a Client Training Specialist, you’ll be an entry-level Yexter working directly with an array of Yext partners and small businesses nationwide. We’re looking for “teacher” and “talker” types who are passionate about customer service and its potential to transform businesses. We are a team of greeters, (Yext platform) tour-guides, coaches, and mentors. We provide quality guidance, emphasize product value, and instill excitement in every phone call to help drive loyalty and retention.

You will:

  • Teach clients and partners how to use the Yext platform
  • Be the “first voice of Yext” post sign-up for our small business clients and many of our partners
  • Help partners leverage Yext to grow their business by:
    • Equipping them with the product knowledge they need to decide how to incorporate Yext into their offerings, increase their operational efficiency, and best service and support their clients
    • Training them on how to effectively communicate the value of Yext to their prospects and clients, leading to more sales and better retention for their business
  • Tailor each training call to optimize learning and increase engagement
  • Connect with each client and partner - enriching their relationship with Yext
  • Handle all written inquiries from partners and clients regarding training
  • Maintain product expertise across our small business and partner channels
  • Create training materials such as “how-to” articles and videos and keep them up-to-date
  • Identify, document, and report technical issues to ensure optimal product performance
  • Work cross-functionally with many different teams such as sales, support, account management, and marketing

 You are:

  • A people person - you can talk to anyone!
  • Intuitive - you understand that not every client or partner fits into the same mold and you’ll love figuring each one of them out
  • Creative - you’ll tailor the way you communicate our value to many different business types
  • Energetic, positive, and confident - you will provide the most engaging calls
  • Adaptable - both to client and partner needs and the ebb and flow of our work day
  • Naturally empathetic and compassionate
  • Appreciative of an entrepreneurial spirit (can vibe with business owners)
  • A critical thinker, problem solver, and multitasker
  • An excellent communicator, both verbal and written
  • Eager to learn and be a part of a team
  • A college graduate (with a bachelor’s degree to prove it!)

You’ll love:

  • Getting clients and partners excited about our industry-leading platform
  • Creating “a-ha” moments for each person you train
  • Striving to be the best part of each client and partner’s day
  • Being surrounded by hardworking Yexters who make it fun to come to work
  • Becoming a part of a family (sounds cliché, but it’s true!)
  • Yext!

An Insider's view of Yext

What’s the vibe like in the office?

The fantastic vibe in the office is why I come in person more days than not. I have genuine friends that I look forward to seeing, and it's nice to meet some new faces, too. The free lunch and snacks aren't a bad perk, either!

What does your typical day look like?

My favorite part about my role has to be the people management on the day-to-day. It's so exciting and satisfying to watch your team grow and become great Yexters. The trust that you build with your team over time really makes challenging times and situations so much easier to navigate - you do it together!

How does the company support your career growth?

Yext has been the center of my career growth since I started here after college. If I had to boil it down to a single theme, it would be authentic support. I have been genuinely & authentically supported in every step I've taken here by my managers and co-workers from across the organization.

Jesse

How do you empower your team to be more creative?

I try to lead with love & be vulnerable with my team. From my past experiences, I have come to believe that creating a space for everyone to be themselves is crucial to empowering them to feel like they can collaborate & create naturally. That’s when people do their best work.

Mofya

How would you describe the company’s work-life balance?

I visit the office twice a week on Mondays & Thursdays. I really appreciate the flexibility that Yext provides! Teams can typically decide what in-person, hybrid, or remote schedules work best for them.
