**Who is this Apprenticeship for?**
- Recent school/college leavers OR those looking for a new challenge
- Individuals who have lived in the EU for 3 years or more, with the right to work in the UK

We’re looking for people who are passionate about providing great Customer Service and wanting to pursue a career in this area. It’s important that you are a great listener and communicator because that’s what excellent service is all about. You’ll need to be enthusiastic, motivated and a team player with a real determination to make a difference both in your development and the business.
