Remote CX Role at Ollie - Salt Lake City or Nashville — Columbus
Traveler-Friendly Insight
This role is labeled as remote, but it comes with a significant geographic constraint: candidates must live within one hour of Salt Lake City, UT or Nashville, TN. Quarterly in-person offsites are required, making this effectively a geo-anchored remote position — not a location-independent one.
For digital nomads or full-time travelers, this role is essentially off-limits. You would need a permanent address and reliable proximity to one of these two cities, ruling out long-term travel abroad or frequent relocation between countries. There are no mentions of async-friendly scheduling, coworking stipends, or equipment allowances that would support a nomadic lifestyle.
Timezone considerations: Salt Lake City operates on MT (UTC-7/-6) and Nashville on CT (UTC-6/-5). Customer-facing roles like this typically require fixed daytime hours aligned with US customer hours, further limiting flexibility.
- No international remote options — US-only, geo-restricted
- Quarterly in-person attendance is mandatory
- No travel perks, coworking stipends, or location flexibility mentioned
If you are a nomad seeking a US-based remote role with true location flexibility, this posting is not a match. Look instead for fully-distributed customer experience roles at companies with explicit async-first cultures and no mandatory in-person requirements.

This role will report to the Customer Experience Manager. We are ONLY hiring candidates living within about one hour of both Salt Lake City, UT and Nashville, TN. While this is a remote position, we hold required quarterly in-person offsites in these areas.
