New Bedford Guide: NOW HIRING!


Looking for ambitious, energetic locals!

Do you have customer service or sales experience? New Bedford Guide is growing and we’re looking to the community for mutual benefit . We are obviously big fans of supporting the local economy, and are looking for a customer service representative who grew up in the area and knows it well.

Position: Customer Service Representative

Function: The rep will help current customers with their objective and follow leads to see how NBG and local businesses can benefit one another.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities: Answer inquiries, use leads to gain new customers, contact local businesses to develop customer base, help and support existing customers, attend local community events and business partner events.

Education and Experience: 3-5 years in the sales or customer service industry, but will waive for the right person. No college degree needed, just sales experience and a passion for the greater New Bedford area.

Special Requirements: must have your own vehicle and a valid driver’s license. Generally travel is within New Bedford, but at times may go into Fairhaven or Dartmouth.

NBG is a community based organization that covers events, things-to-do, news and important community issues. People, businesses, and organizations all need to market and promote to the community. The Facebook Page, Twitter, Guides (New Bedford, Fairhaven, Dartmouth, Fall River, etc.), Website, Rotten Scallop Satire site, and event calendar provide a way to reach 250,000+ people a week and can have a marked effect on their promotion. This is done through services like article spotlights, ad space, “shout-outs”, sponsorship, and general networking. The salesperson will get to know the customer’s objectives intimately and prescribe the right services to help them reach those objectives.

We are not seeking an overbearing or pushy sales person. We want to provide a genuine service by building a relationship with the customer and assisting in their goals. By being in tune with the customers promotions, events, milestones, the rep can help in a timely fashion.

While there will be sales which will consist of visiting local businesses, making phone calls and sending e-mails, part of the day will be spent working with existing customers who may also provide leads.

The Greater New Bedford unemployment rate is much higher than the rest of Massachusetts, but believe it or not there really are a lot of jobs available for qualified applicants. Sometimes the barrier to a new job can be the lack of information on available job openings. To solve this, each week New Bedford Guide will be working with the New Directions Southcoast (also known as the Greater New Bedford Career Center) and pulling jobs from our jobs database to inform job seekers about the hottest jobs in the area. We will define “Hot Jobs” as those jobs that need to be filled by the employer immediately. For those looking to search some large job databases, checkout my Best Job Search Resources for New Bedford Residents article. Unless noted otherwise, those interested in these positions or want more information should go to the Greater New Bedford Career Center at 618 Acushnet Avenue.
