- Handling all customer requirements for service and vehicle repairs efficiently and professionally.
- Liaising with the workshop to progress work through the system.
- Controlling all computer-based jobs, purchasing and invoice processes, ensuring the financial interests of the customer and the company are protected.
- Let customers know of any faults or repairs found on their vehicle and provide them with clear and accurate solutions.
- Treating dissatisfied customers with empathy and understanding, reassuring them that we can solve any issues should they arise.

- Maintaining knowledge of aftersales products and services, upselling where appropriate.
- Making sure the customer database is updated and accurate at all times.

**Essential skills**
- Experience in a customer service role is a must.
- A passion for great customer service and the confidence to resolve any issues that may arise efficiently and on time.
- The ability to multi-task and be highly adaptable within a busy environment.
- Strong communication and influencing skills, with the ability and desire to explain complex information accurately and concisely to help our customers.
- Strong organisational skills to schedule work effectively, balancing the needs of the customer and the capacity of the workshop.
- Ability to prioritise your workload.
- Ability and willingness to work with defined processes and guidelines.
- Good core administration skills to accurately capture customer details to the required standards.
- A full UK driving licence.

**Nice to have (but not essential)**
- Experience in upselling products or services is desirable.

If you’re successful, you’ll benefit from excellent working conditions, including extensive training and support.
