torrance, United States Gracie University Full time

First, a little bit about our Companies:


  • Gracie University (www.gracieuniversity.com) is the world's leading center for self-defense instruction, offering demographic-specific self-defense programs based on Gracie Jiu-Jitsu principles. With over 150 certified schools, an online university, and a thriving clothing brand, GU has grown from a family-owned martial arts school to a global enterprise. The Torrance location, GU headquarters, caters to over 1,100 local students and upholds the legacy of Helio Gracie by teaching self-defense as a lifestyle.


  • Sleeper Hold (www.sleeperhold.com) made history on Kickstarter by selling over 30,000 pillows, becoming the #1 crowd-funded travel pillow of all time. Founded by a husband and wife team with extensive travel experience—Eve, a 3-Time WWE Champion, and Rener, a world-renowned Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instructor and inventor—Sleeper Hold was born out of their desire to improve in-flight sleep quality. After years of development and testing, they perfected their design and are now ready to revolutionize the travel comfort industry. Sleeper Hold is looking for dedicated individuals to help take this innovative company to new heights.


  • Quikflip Apparel (www.quikflipapparel.com) was founded by Rener Gracie, a third-generation jiu-jitsu master from the legendary Gracie family. Rener applied his problem-solving expertise, honed through years of martial arts training, to create the Hero Hoodie—a hoodie that transforms into a functional backpack. Quikflip Apparel has since gained international acclaim, even appearing on Shark Tank, and has built a loyal customer base worldwide. We’re looking for passionate team members who are excited about delivering exceptional customer experiences and revolutionizing the apparel industry one hoodie at a time.


JOB SUMMARY

Our customers expect not just a great product, but a great customer experience when choosing which business to support.

The Customer Support Specialist's goal is to ensure that every touchpoint that a customer has with the company exceeds their expectations. The position supports all three entities housed within the Gracie University building: Gracie University of Jiu-Jitsu, Quikflip Apparel, and Sleeper Hold.
