Customer Service Advisor: role overview
As a Customer Service Advisor, the job holder plays a critical role in ensuring customer satisfaction and loyalty, ultimately contributing to the success of the business and to the overall instashop customer experience. The advisor provides an excellent customer service experience and resolves issues with the utmost professionalism, handling inbound calls and messages from customers, partners and prospects.
The work covers three groups: customers ordering groceries, shop partners fulfilling those orders, and riders delivering them. The advisor works closely with the Rider Support and Partner Care teams to make sure orders are fulfilled and delivered on time, and supports partners across calls, emails and chats, including basic IT troubleshooting to keep order fulfilment running smoothly.
Key responsibilities
The main duties of the role, as stated on the official Delivery Hero careers posting, are:
- Handle calls and messages from customers, partners and prospects from the inbound channel.
- Deliver high-quality customer service by actively listening to customers, clarifying their requirements, asking relevant probing questions to ensure full understanding, and effectively utilising available resources to resolve enquiries efficiently, accurately and professionally.
- Collaborate closely with the Rider Support and Partner Care teams to ensure the timely, accurate and efficient fulfilment and delivery of customer orders.
- Consistently meet established customer service performance standards and KPIs, including response time, resolution rate, productivity, quality and customer satisfaction.
- Provide timely and effective support to partners across multiple communication channels, including calls, emails and chats, while delivering remote assistance and basic IT troubleshooting to help ensure seamless order fulfilment.
- Escalate issues such as repeated patterns of failure points to the Escalations team or line manager, where applicable.
- Stay up to date on company policies and procedures to provide accurate information to customers.
Meeting KPIs is a core part of the job: response time, resolution rate, productivity, quality and customer satisfaction are all measured. The advisor is expected to spot patterns as well as solve single cases, escalating repeated failures so the underlying problem can be fixed rather than answered again and again.

- High school diploma or equivalent.
- Minimum 2+ years of experience in customer service or call centre roles.

- Effective time management and organisational skills.
- Exceptional interpersonal and problem-solving skills.
- Flexible schedule and open to work on a rotational shift basis, including weekends.
- Genuine care and concern for customer concerns and satisfaction.
The role is on-site in Dubai and runs on rotational shifts, including weekends, so candidates should be ready for shift work and high call volumes. English is essential; Arabic is an advantage but not a requirement.
