What the Hiring Manager Says

If successful, you will join one of our teams and undergo comprehensive classroom training before you ‘go live’ in your role. You will receive support to help you achieve your future short and long-term goals and ambitions through regular coaching and monthly one to ones with your manager.

I have both full time and part time roles available. Anyone who joins us on a part-time basis will need to work full-time initially, to complete their product training and induction, but once the 9 week training programme has completed, they will work their agreed hours and days.

About the Role

Department: Customer Service Centre

Location: Southampton

Contract type: Permanent

**Salary**: £22,000.00 (£23,500 after passing probation)

Our Customer Service Advisors receive between 30-40 phone calls a day. They handle queries, having been trained to explain complex information in a way our customers will understand.

At times, our advisors may deal with complaints, liaise with different areas within our business and investigate certain calls.

As our customers’ needs evolve, our advisors are trained in how to show empathy in emotional or challenging situations, and to have resilience when dealing with difficult conversations.

Our colleagues play a vital role in our business, so we do what we can to acknowledge their hard work by holding regular recognition and social events, that provide awards, prizes and contribute to peer reviews.

Our standard working hours are 35 hrs per week, Monday to Friday with no weekends, but we are delighted to be piloting increased hour contracts for colleagues that would like to work more hours and increase their earnings
