Do you get a kick out of helping others and making a difference? Do you want a new job changing lives?
As a Customer Service Advisor at Motability Operations, you should expect to do all that and more by delivering outstanding customer service above the norm.
Join our team and you’ll discover our working environment is quite unique. We empower people and trust them to make their own decisions for customers with none of our calls being scripted.

About You
You’ll need to be a natural listener and communicator, the kind of person who can empathise with a customer, understand what they want and work out what to do next. You are likely to have previous experience within a customer service environment and you must love what you do. We need our Customer Service Advisors to ‘own’ the calls through to resolution, so whilst being commercially aware. You will also enjoy working in a principle lead rather that process based culture. You will need to be able to show resilience to the challenges you are faced with in what is not a normal Contact Centre Role. What’s most important is that you bring energy and enjoyment into work with you every day and are passionate about what you do.About The Company
