Fresh Food, Happy Dogs.

We believe dogs deserve the healthiest, most natural and tastiest meals - with none of the nasties. That’s why we make FRESHly prepared food, cooked just like you would at home and delivered direct to our customers in perfect portions. As a B-Corp certified company, you’re joining a sustainable business that genuinely cares about our people, our products and our impact on the planet. Our goal is simple: to help dogs live healthier, happier, and longer lives, while leaving humans smiling after every interaction.

We’ve come a long way since our co-founders (Kev & Dave), hand delivered the very first Butternut Box. Today, we feed hundreds of thousands of hungry dogs across the UK and Europe - but we won’t stop until we’re feeding dogs everywhere. To get there, we need a team of brilliant people who share that ambition to come and work for us. 

🐾 The job: 

We’re looking for someone who genuinely enjoys working with data, spotting patterns, and making things run more smoothly. You are curious, detail-obsessed, and love figuring out how things work. You’ll play a key role behind the scenes, improving the systems, workflows, and content that power our customer support.

This role is ideal for someone who naturally gravitates towards numbers and problem-solving (you were probably the kind of person who had maths as their favourite subject at school). You love digging into spreadsheets, analysing trends, and turning messy information into clear, useful insights. You’ll spend time building reports, refining processes, and making sure our tools and content are accurate, consistent, and effective.

You’ll also support the ongoing development of our automation and support tools, using real customer data to identify improvements and ensure everything is working as intended. Everything you do will have a big impact on our customer experience.

Some of your day-to-day activities will include:

• Producing regular reports to track performance metrics of our tools, identify trends, and uncover areas for improvement. Delivering insights to inform strategic decisions and enhance the overall customer experience.
• Analysing customer interaction data to uncover patterns, root causes of issues, and areas where we can improve processes or reduce contact volume.
• Owning and improving the performance of our support tools by reviewing outputs, identifying errors or inconsistencies, and refining workflows to improve accuracy and quality.
• Managing all aspects of our Help Centre to ensure our customers have access to clear, up-to-date information about everything to do with Butternut and Marro.
• Working closely with Product and Engineering teams to ensure our systems and tools are set up effectively and being used to their full potential to deliver the best possible experience for our customers and the team.
• Taking ownership of customer satisfaction (CSAT) consistently monitoring performance and uncovering opportunities to improve the quality and impact of every customer interaction.
• Acting as the main point of contact with Intercom, troubleshooting issues, attending meetings with our Intercom Account Manager, and exploring new features.

👀 What we're looking for: 

Our ideal candidate is a data-fluent problem solver who views every messy process as an opportunity for elegant automation.

Technical Skills & Experience

• Data Literacy: A natural affinity for numbers, charts, and dashboards. You can construct complex formulas, build accurate forecasts, and analyse historical data to extract actionable insights.
• Platform Expertise: Previous experience with Intercom, Zendesk, Dixa, or similar CX stacks (including their native AI features) is a significant asset.
• AI Fluency: Highly desirable is a demonstrated understanding of AI fundamentals and a track record of applying AI-powered tools to real-world workflows.
• The Toolkit: Proficiency in Google Sheets, Notion, and ideally Looker, paired with an appetite for mastering any tool that helps the team work smarter.

Mindset & Approach

• Systems Thinker: Motivated by the challenge of simplifying workflows! 
• Root-Cause Resolution: A curious mind that naturally asks “why”. You don’t just patch a leak; you look for the root cause to prevent it from happening again.
• Unrivalled Attention to Detail: An innate ability to spot patterns and inconsistencies before they impact the team, ensuring high-quality outputs every time.
• Scalability Champion: You find genuine satisfaction in refining a messy process into something smooth, repeatable, and scalable.

Behaviours

• Insight driven: You thrive on turning raw quantitative data into tangible business improvements and enjoy providing insights to those around you.
• People first optimisation: You care deeply about the experience of our customers and our team. You’re always looking for ways to make things smoother and more efficient for the people around you.
• Radical candour: A believer in the power of honest, thoughtful feedback. You aren’t afraid to speak up when something isn’t working, and you do it with care.
• Resilient problem solving: Progress is your primary motivator. Whether building a new workflow or unblocking a data issue, you stay focused on finding a better way, even when things get tricky.
• Reliability & ownership: You hold yourself to high standards and take pride in following through. If something is on your plate, it gets done or is communicated clearly if it can’t be.
• Cultural ambition: You want to make Butternut and Marro the best place we’ve ever worked. You know that well-designed tools, clear data, and smart processes can transform a team’s day-to-day, and you’re excited to lead that charge.

• Our team thrives on collaboration. We spend 3 days a week in our West London office (Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday) and 2 days working from wherever you’re most productive. Because being together is a big part of our culture, we’re looking for someone within a comfortable commutable distance to London.
