Customer Experience Specialist (DTC Golf Industry) - Remote Eligible

Customer Experience Specialist

Timezone: CET ±2 hours Reports to: CEO Works closely with: CX Team, Retention & E-commerce Manager Growth Path: CX Lead / Head of Customer Experience

About the Company

We are a fast-growing Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) golf brand dedicated to designing and delivering premium golf equipment and accessories to players across global markets. Built by golfers, for golfers, our product ecosystem includes high-performance trolleys, bags, and modular accessories engineered to elevate the on-course experience.

With a strong reputation for quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction, we serve a passionate community of golfers who expect both exceptional products and world-class service. As we scale internationally and expand our product lines, we are looking for a Customer Experience Specialist who can represent the brand with authenticity, expertise, and care.

The Role

This is not a traditional support role. As a Customer Experience Specialist, you will be the frontline voice of the brand — engaging with customers before and after purchase, guiding them through product decisions, and ensuring every interaction reflects the premium nature of our offering.

You will combine deep product knowledge of golf equipment with strong customer service instincts to deliver a seamless, high-touch experience. You understand that in DTC, customer experience is brand experience.

Beyond handling tickets, you will play a key role in improving processes, optimizing CX tools, and contributing insights that shape product, marketing, and retention strategies.
