- **A quick learner**: You take information on board quickly and remember details easily.
- **Adaptable**: You can deal with unexpected situations confidently and calmly. You can be counted upon to resolve situations, even when you don’t have all the information to hand.
- **Excellent under pressure**: You can multi-task easily, working both quickly and accurately.
- **An independent worker**: you can manage your own workload - you try your best to finish your work each day wherever possible, keeping customer response times to a minimum.
- **Committed**: You’re willing to work anti-social hours (for example bank holidays and weekends) on the understanding that you are directly contributing to the company’s success.
- **A travel aficionado**:you’ve travelled (ideally backpacked) Europe and beyond, and you’re full of experiences, stories and advice to share with your customers.
