JOB OVERVIEW

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

We’re hiring an experienced Disputes & Chargebacks Team Lead to own and optimize our chargeback/dispute operations across multiple payment processors. You will manage day-to-day case strategy, improve SOPs, lead a small team, and drive measurable improvements in win rate and dispute ratio.

You’ll be responsible for keeping our payment operations healthy, reducing financial loss, and building repeatable systems that scale.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
1) Disputes Execution & Strategy

Handle chargebacks/disputes end-to-end across Stripe, PayPal, Shopify Payments (and other processors when needed)

Build strong evidence packages: order proof, tracking proof, customer communication logs, product pages, policies, IP/device data (when available), etc.

Ensure on-time submissions and compliance with each processor’s timelines and rules

Write high-quality rebuttals and structured dispute responses that improve win rates

2) Process & SOP Ownership

Build and maintain private SOPs per processor (Stripe vs PayPal vs Shopify Payments rules differ)

Create playbooks by dispute reason code (fraud, not received, not as described, refund not processed, etc.)

Implement standard templates, tagging rules, escalation flows, and evidence checklists

3) Analytics & Performance Management

Produce weekly reporting: win rate, dispute ratio, top dispute reasons, loss drivers, recurring patterns

Identify root causes (shipping delays, unclear product expectations, policy gaps, CX quality issues) and coordinate fixes with the CX/Operations team

Continuously improve KPIs and prevent repeat dispute patterns

4) Team Leadership (Hands-on)

Hire support/disputes agents (Philippines preferred) and train them

Run quality control: audit cases, correct mistakes, coach agents, and enforce SOP compliance

Create training materials and ensure consistent dispute handling at scale

STRICT REQUIREMENTS (READ CAREFULLY)

Do NOT apply if you do not meet ALL of the following:

You have personally handled at least 200–300 chargebacks/disputes end-to-end (not just “assisted”)

You can demonstrate a minimum win rate of 60%+ (or provide proof/results from past role)

Strong working experience with Stripe + PayPal (Shopify Payments is a big plus)

You understand dispute timelines, evidence standards, reason codes, and how processors evaluate cases

You are highly organized and can manage high-volume environments without missing deadlines

Excellent written English — clear, direct, professional rebuttals

Nice to have (bonus):

Shopify admin knowledge (order timelines, fulfillment, policies, customer notes, tags)

Experience improving dispute ratio through operational improvements (shipping, policy clarity, CX scripts)

Prior team lead or manager experience in dispute/risk ops

WORK SETUP

Full-time: 8 hours/day, 40 hours/week

Flexible schedule, but you must meet deadlines and be responsive

We require Hubstaff time tracking: ----------

COMPENSATION

Hourly rate based on proven experience and results
