About the Opportunity
Join careerzynith as a Remote Customer Service Representative supporting one of the nation’s largest and most respected electric utility providers, proudly serving more than five million customers across 11 states for over a century. careerzynith is partnering with this award-winning Fortune 200 company to bring on dedicated, compassionate, and skilled professionals to serve as the frontline voice for customers throughout Oklahoma and beyond. This is a fully remote, work-from-home position open to candidates located within 60 miles of Tulsa, Oklahoma, where you’ll be equipped with all the tools and technology needed to succeed from the comfort of your home office.
Utility customer service is more than answering calls — it’s about being a steady, helpful presence during life’s everyday moments and, sometimes, during unexpected emergencies such as power outages. careerzynith and our client understand the importance of every interaction, and that’s why we are committed to building a team of professionals who genuinely care about delivering exceptional service. If you’re looking for a long-term career in customer service with room to grow, this opportunity is designed for you.
Why This Role Stands Out
This isn’t your typical call center job. Here’s what makes this Customer Service Representative position at careerzynith truly special:
- Work from the comfort of your home — All necessary equipment is provided, so you can focus on what you do best: helping customers.
- Team-oriented culture — Collaborate with supportive colleagues in a casual, jeans-friendly work environment that values connection and camaraderie.
- Recognized and rewarded — Hard work doesn’t go unnoticed. Enjoy contests, raffles, team parties, and ongoing recognition for your contributions.
- Inbound-only calls — No cold calling, no outbound sales. You’ll be the friendly, knowledgeable voice customers reach out to when they need help with their service, billing questions, or outage reports.
- Overtime opportunities — Especially during severe weather and outage events, additional hours are available for those who want to boost their income.
- Career growth potential — Demonstrated performance may open doors to future direct-hire opportunities with our client, a Fortune 200 company with a strong history of internal promotion.
One of our current associates put it best: “I have been working full-time here for more than five years. It’s an amazing job with amazing people, an incredible culture, and a workforce that truly cares about its employees.”
