In this role, you will play a vital role in setting the tone for families' interactions with After. You will secure cases, dispatch and respond to inbound queries and communication, and handle support tickets in a timely fashion.

The primary hours of this role are as-needed, overnight, either 6pm-9am or 7pm-7am, depending on the day.
