Job Description

HOMEWORKING but must be based within commutable distance to Brighton City Centre

Are you on the lookout for a new part-time position with fixed shifts to work around your current commitments and lifestyle, whilst offering remote working? Do you want to work for a company that supports work life balance?

If so, we have the opportunity you have been looking for!

Here at Domestic & General our priority has been to support our employees through the recent challenges COVID-19 has presented, whilst still providing an excellent service journey for our customers.

We are now excited to be recruiting our next Part-Time Customer Support Advisor intake within our Customer Support department, that will initially be fully home based. We have changed how we recruit and onboard, so your journey with us will now be fully virtual, giving you the flexibility but still the full engaging experience that you deserve.

Please note that this role will be home based initially, with the potential for a mix of office and home-based working in the future. You will therefore need to live within a commutable distance, from our office in the Brighton city centre.

About the Role

Working in our busy inbound Customer Support department, you will deliver excellent customer experience to our customers every time, ensuring first contact resolution, addressing the primary reason for the customer contact.

As a Customer Service Advisor, you will use your strong communication and rapport building skills to create sales opportunities on every call, making customers aware of other suitable products available that could improve their experience and add value to them.

Our Customer Support department takes varied customer call types, so you have an opportunity to make a real difference in each and every customer journey.

You'll also be call listening to some of our customer calls to see what makes a great customer experience, as well as perfecting your sales ability.
