You do all of this by answering calls, live chats (up to 2 at a time) and emails from our customers, taking an average of 20-30 contacts per day. You will also be expected to make outbound ‘service calls’ to customers who have emailed us, to ensure fast, high-quality service.

An opportunity to experience an engaging customer service position where you will be welcomed into a friendly and diverse team and will have the opportunity to write your own H&M story, growing and developing both personally and professionally.

Hybrid working model:
To help you build confidence in your role, create meaningful relationships with colleagues & to embrace our company culture, your first 8 weeks will require working from our Edinburgh office full time. After this, if eligible, you will be able to work with our hybrid model where you can work from home up to 60% of the time, with the remaining 40% in our office, equating to around 8 days per month.
This provides the best of both worlds for our colleagues - the freedom that working from home brings alongside a dynamic office that allows us to connect with each other.
To be eligible to work from home you must have:
- A practical work environment including a comfortable and safe space to work with minimal noise disruption, and a suitable table and chair to work from
- An internet connection with speeds of at least 200kbps
Please note, if successful we require that you provide us with evidence of your proof of right to work in the UK.
Should you need adjustments considered throughout the recruitment process, please highlight them in your application.
Unfortunately, this is not a position that we are able to offer sponsorship for under the skilled worker route.
We look forward to hearing from you soon!
Write your own H&M story, grow with us, shape your future, and achieve more than you ever thought possible
