Salford, Salford, United Kingdom Pearson Full time

The Team
Our Customer Services team in Manchester is made up of 8 friendly, hardworking, and customer-focused colleagues. We are also part of 2 other International hubs in Singapore and India delivering our globally recognized qualifications.

We also work alongside and support Schools and Colleagues in the UK.

Who are we looking for?


We'd like to hear from you if you have a background in Customer Service or the skills to demonstrate you can offer outstanding service to our customers.

We're looking for people who will thrive working as part of a team. You'll be comfortable speaking with multiple departments and show the initiative and confidence to work independently when needed.

You will be delivering outstanding service to meet our customers' changing needs under pressure.

The education sector is constantly evolving, and we need our team to be adaptable and dynamic to take on new information quickly.


You'll be the expert who's on hand to support them with any queries relating to the administration and delivery of Pearson qualifications.

This could be when registering learners, right through to certification.


We're looking for problem-solvers that won't be daunted when things go wrong, and with training will be comfortable resolving complex and urgent queries.

This isn't your average contact centre environment.

We don't have any call scripts or unrealistic targets; we just want our customer service team to offer outstanding support and be the voice of Pearson.
