About arenaflex
arenaflex is a fast‑growing leader in the home‑improvement services marketplace, connecting homeowners with vetted contractors across the United States. Our mission is to streamline the journey from a homeowner’s initial request to a qualified, high‑value project for our contractor partners. By leveraging cutting‑edge technology, data‑driven insights, and a people‑first culture, we empower both consumers and professionals to achieve better outcomes. As a remote‑first organization, arenaflex embraces flexibility, innovation, and continuous learning, offering a supportive environment where every team member can thrive.
Role Overview
We are seeking a motivated, detail‑oriented Customer Service Representative to join the arenaflex team. This remote position is open exclusively to Florida residents and focuses on outbound outreach to consumers who have expressed interest in home‑improvement services.

- Assess each lead against predefined criteria to determine suitability for arenaflex contractor partners.
- Perform “warm handoffs” by introducing qualified consumers to the appropriate contractor, ensuring a seamless transition.
- Maintain up‑to‑date records in the CRM system, noting call outcomes, next steps, and any relevant notes.
- Collaborate with the sales and operations teams to refine qualification parameters based on feedback and market trends.
- Identify patterns in small‑job inquiries and provide actionable insights to improve lead‑filtering processes.
- Adhere to compliance standards, data‑privacy regulations, and arenaflex quality guidelines in every interaction.

- Self‑motivation and the ability to work independently with minimal supervision.
- Florida residency (required by state‑specific regulations).

- Familiarity with CRM platforms (e.g., Salesforce, HubSpot) and ability to quickly learn new software.
- Basic understanding of lead qualification frameworks and sales funnel concepts.
- Problem‑solving mindset with the ability to think on your feet during live conversations.
- Comfort with using scripts while still delivering a personalized customer experience.
- High level of digital literacy and comfort navigating multiple applications simultaneously.
