Do you have fantastic people skills? Can you deliver a great customer experience? If yes, we have the perfect job for you in our Leicester office. Working Hours/ Shift Patterns: You will work 37.5 hours per week including 3-4 weekends out of 8. If you work a weekend shift, you’ll get time off in lieu. Our opening hours: Monday to Friday 08:00 - 19:00 and 09:00 to 17:00 at the weekends. Salary: Starting £23,500 plus benefits and the opportunity for further salary progression. Training: Training will start in our Leicester office on 28 October 2024 and last for 7 weeks. We will be unable to accommodate any candidates that have holiday during this training period. Once you have completed your training and only when we feel you can work independently you will move to hybrid working. A chance to work in a hybrid way: With hybrid working, you have more flexibility, as you usually only have to visit our office once a week and work remotely for the rest of the time. You can always opt to work from the office more frequently if that suits you better. When we organise training and events you may be required to attend in person for the duration. Location: Our fantastic Leicester office, which is in the city centre and only a short walk from the train station. Your role: As a member of our non-voice Customer Service team, you’ll be handling inbound chats from customers who are interested in one of our policies or wish to make changes to an existing one. Whether they have a question, need to update their details or support purchasing one of our products, you’ll use your skills and knowledge to understand their needs, explain the options and provide them with the right policy every time.
