What Makes a Great Support Agent

Life Long Learners. Our team is committed to giving our customers the best support we can. This means we’re always learning. Each of our support agents contributes to our team's culture and challenges the status quo, improving their team, our department, and the company.

Driven individuals, comfortable asking questions. We do our best to empower each team member with the information they need to work with autonomy when they can, and the internal support they need to find answers when they’re stuck! You’re not on your own, though. The team is always there to back you up.

Good communicators with excellent writing skills. Ninety-seven percent (97%) of our support is done through written communication. Additionally, over half of Planning Center’s employees work from home and in different time zones. Clear and concise writing skills are paramount in conveying the heart of Planning Center to our teammates and customers.

Problem solvers with a knack for simplifying complex issues. Some problems come with multiple solutions, and the best solution often depends on the situation. We do our best to provide you with all the options available to help our customers solve their problems, but understanding which one will work best is often up to you!

Passion for excellent products. Our products give us a contagious excitement, knowing that they "just work." We believe our products are the best at what they do, and our support team is the best at helping our customers use them.
