Summary:

Do you want to jump-start your career while earning a well-regarded qualification?

Do you have a strong desire to help others? Do you want to be a part of an award-winning team with a meaningful purpose? Then do not pass up this opportunity.

We have regular apprenticeship intakes with a guaranteed, permanent position on successful completion.

As a Customer Service Apprentice, you will use your entire passion, drive, and willingness to give great service. And with so much variation, you can be sure that no two days will ever be the same. You'll aid with billing inquiries, providing refunds, and setting up payment plans, as well as resolving water supply concerns including leaks and other problems.

The Institute of Customer Service has given our Customer Service team the distinction grade. We are one of just 18 organisations in the country to get this coveted honour. As a result, you'll be joining a team that provides their all.

This is a structured 24-month apprenticeship that includes group workshops, individual training, and other assignments in addition to on-the-job learning.

On your road to completing a Customer Service Specialist Level 3 Apprenticeship and securing a permanent career at the end of the apprenticeship programme, you can expect plenty of encouragement and support from your Trainers, Team Managers, Mentors, and Buddies.

It's not a problem if you don't have much work experience. We know you'll bring a lot of determination and a strong desire to succeed. So, what's most crucial is that you work well as a team and are comfortable speaking in with others. In this role, you'll focus on three key areas of performance: handling calls efficiently, maintaining quality, and providing the greatest customer experience possible.

We understand the importance of progressing in your career. As a result, your salary will rise as you progress through your apprenticeship. When you join, you'll be a part of one of our call centre teams. We're open Monday through Friday from 8:00 until 19:00 and on Saturday from 8:00 until 13:00. As a result, you will be able to schedule your shifts so that 1 in 6 Saturdays are worked. Your rotas will be available in advance so that you may make plans.

With monthly and quarterly bonuses offered based on your performance and assisting us in providing the greatest levels of customer satisfaction, you can earn additional money in addition to your income. On average, you can anticipate earning an additional £3,000 annually, with a possible maximum of £,300.

Main responsibilities:
  • Develop and build knowledge of the Customer Service area by completing the apprentice pathway
  • Understand the importance of the business areas, the processes, data protection, regulatory compliance and attendance.
  • Begin to build relationships with peers and colleagues to enhance the team working environment, resolve customer problems.
  • Develop an awareness of information and resources available and proactively ensure that skills and knowledge are deepened to enable progression.
