ABOUT THE ROLE:
As a Resolution Specialist, you'll play a pivotal role in our clients' tax resolution journey.

- Prepare and send follow-up emails and letters containing pertinent details about the finalized resolution program. Collaborate with other team members to ensure a seamless transition from negotiation to the close-out phase for each client. Become an expert in CRM to thoroughly review cases, and recent activity, and properly enter notes adhering to company standards.
- Partner with other departments to ensure the client is placed on the best resolution possible and properly navigate the case internally if the client's financial situation has significantly changed.
- Consistent time and attendance is crucial not only for operational efficiency and team collaboration, but also to meet the high standards of client needs as this is a client facing role.
- Serve as a dedicated advocate for clients, ensuring their needs and concerns are effectively communicated to facilitate resolution and support.
- Actively participate in continuous improvement initiatives aimed at enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of the close-out process, contributing ideas and feedback for process enhancements.
- Solicit feedback from clients regarding their close-out experience, actively listening to their input and suggestions for improvement, and incorporating this feedback into process enhancements.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to address complex client cases and resolve any outstanding issues or concerns in a timely and efficient manner.
