What does an average day look like?
Now there’s a question!

  • A typical day will see you working up to 9 hours per day (including 1 hour break and lunch) in a lively & vibrant contact centre environment on site.
  • You will start your day signing into your systems to make sure you are ready to take your first call of the day.
  • You will talk to a variety of customers with different needs. Some may want a quick update or to provide further information, others may be demanding or frustrated and may want to challenge the process.
  • You will be working in a fast-paced, busy Contact Centre environment where you will be speaking with multiple Customers every day due to the high volume of calls we receive.


What do we need from you?
People skills and confidence in your PC skills!

  • A good attitude and the ability to interact with lots of different people.
  • The ability to learn in a virtual training environment which requires focus and engagement from you with your Trainer and peers.
  • The ability to handle challenging calls with resilience and determination.
  • The ability to actively listen to a Customer’s query, search for the relevant information via our Knowledgebase system and be able to relay this correctly to the Customer whilst ensuring their full understanding
  • The ability to multitask and navigate between multiple complex systems with speed and accuracy during your interactions with customers.
  • Flexibility, great attendance and good time keeping to make sure you are available for our customers.


What will we give you?
Well there’s plenty, where do we start?

  • Paid classroom-based training and a further 2 weeks in a dedicated support that we call “Nesting”.
  • Nesting is where the action happens, and where you take your first live calls. This is also where the nerves kick in, and mistakes may happen, but don’t worry, we expect that. We make it our responsibility to look after you with full support from experienced members of the team on hand to help.
  • The chance to showcase your skills and fast track your career through our internal progression path.
  • Days away from your desk to support in the local community, perhaps painting a hospital wing or cleaning a beach are some of the favourites
  • Winter and summer parties, usually held in fabulous venues. Free food & drinks!
