Requirements: native Portuguese, English at a professional level, 24+ hours weekly with flexible shifts, and MB0/HBO or a degree; a customer-first, solution-driven mindset is essential.

Job Description

In this role, you’re the calm, confident voice behind the screen and on the phone. As our Customer Relations & Sales Ambassador, you’ll turn questions into solutions, challenges into positive experiences, and “just browsing” into “add to basket”, without sounding like a bot. 

You’ll support customers via email, phone and social media, while spotting opportunities to recommend the right Rituals product for their moment (because yes, that hand soap might actually change someone’s day).

What you’ll do: 

• Be the go-to contact for our Portuguese and English-speaking customers: questions, concerns, compliments and order issues.
• Deliver personal and engaging service (no copy-paste replies, no corporate scripts).
• Spot sales opportunities naturally and recommend products that truly match the customer’s needs.
• Keep an eye on quality and productivity, working with targets and KPIs while staying authentically you.
• Think in solutions, not problems and make sure customers feel genuinely heard along the way.
• Bring the Rituals brand to life through your service and help customers turn everyday routines into more meaningful moments.

Qualifications

"High on energy, low on ego and with a little bit of humor." You like finding smart, practical solutions and you don’t settle for standard answers. You’re customer-focused, listen first, ask the right questions and make sure people feel understood. And when things get busy? That's when you're at your best.

Plus, you have: 

• Availability for at least 24 hours/week (32, 36 or 40 hours are also possible).
• Full flexibility: available 7 days/week, comfortable working different shifts and weekends (around 1.5 weekends per month).
• Portuguese (native level) and English (C1–C2 level) skills - written and spoken at a professional level.
• MBO or HBO level (secondary/higher vocational education) or a completed college degree.
• A strong customer-first mindset: you naturally go the extra mile, keep it personal and focus on resolution and results.
• Strong communication skills: clear, friendly, professional and empathetic, even when it gets busy.
• A solution-oriented approach: you don’t just explain policies, you help find the best way forward.

Great extras:

• Experience in customer service, hospitality, retail or sales
• Interest in premium retail, wellness, beauty or lifestyle brands. You don’t have to be a Rituals expert yet, we’ll help you get there!
