Salary: Competitive Salary, bonus and an excellent range of benefits including: discounts with national retailers, 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, private healthcare, up to 12% company pension contribution plus a wide range of flexible benefits to choose from to suit your lifestyle!

This is a great opportunity for a 12-month fixed term contract to cover maternity leave! If you’re looking for a career which will unlock new opportunities, working for a household name in a role where you will make a difference to people’s lives, then this is the role for you! We are looking for people with great customer service experience, for example, from call centers, retail, hospitality or the care sector.

Danone is a major FMCG company whose mission is to bring health through food to as many people as possible. Our market-leading consumer brands include Evian, Activia and Alpro, and our Specialised Nutrition products (e.g. Aptamil, Cow & Gate, Fortisip, Complan) which improve the quality of life of thousands of patients across the UK and can even save lives. Join our customer services, patient centric team to help ensure that all our patients receive their supplies in line with their specific individual requirements as and when they need them.

Working between home and our bright modern offices in Trowbridge, you will be providing the first line of contact to many of our patients and carers within our Patient Services team. Here at Danone/Nutricia we break the mold of typical call center environments. Working as part of a friendly, close-knit and supportive team, there are no stuffy scripts or selling involved here! We recognise that our people are our biggest asset and we aim to offer a supportive work environment in which colleagues can thrive and progress. In fact, this role is a great opportunity to learn all about our business and is often the spring-board to other career opportunities within the business!

You’ll be responsible for:

• Providing the highest levels of customer satisfaction and professional customer support

• Establishing rapport so you can have meaningful conversations with patients/carers and healthcare professionals to understand how you can help and then providing relevant solutions

• Maintaining and updating customer account details

• Handling complaints and taking ownership to resolve them

• Being the voice of our patients/carers to help us continually improve

• Acting with care and integrity - making time to resolve queries and building the trust to provide great service.

Working Hours:

You will also be required to work approximately one in Saturday in every 8-12 week from 9.00-1pm, for which you will receive time off in lieu.
