Job Description

Customer Sales Advisor - Retentions

Must be based within commutable distance to Nottingham City Centre.

Do you want to work for a company that supports work life balance? If so, we may 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 Customer Sales Advisors in our Retentions Department that will be initially home based, in a role that offers great work life balance plus a flexible and engaging onboarding experience.

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 Nottingham city centre.

The role you'll do

As a Customer Sales Advisor in our Retentions team, you'll be the first of call for customers who are renewing or cancelling their plans. Day-to-day, you'll:

  • Build rapport with customers, get to know their individual needs and put their interests first, so they continue their protection with us.
  • Share the features and benefits of protection products to help customers find the one that's right for them.
  • Use your brilliant sales and customer service skills to suggest other products that give added peace of mind.

What else to expect:

  • In a 3-week training programme you'll learn our systems, meet your new colleagues, perfect your sales technique and learn what makes a great customer experience.
  • This department has flexible shift patterns based on a 37.5-hour contract, between the hours of Monday to Saturday - 08:00-20.00; Sunday - 08.00-18:30.
  • This is a permanent hybrid working model, which means you will have a mix of working from home and in our city centre office in Nottingham in the future.
  • We'll provide all the equipment you need, but you must have broadband access.

The experience and skills you need

  • A solid background in targeted sales or customer service
  • A driven mindset with strong sales skills and a love for hitting targets
  • Proven experience of working autonomously or in a home-based position
  • Great communication skills - you're at ease building rapport, listening to customers and demonstrating empathy when needed
  • A team player committed to creating an excellent customer experience
  • Unflappable and resilient attitude to juggle tasks and bounce back quickly

Salary & Bonuses

  • £18,500 rising to £21,500 after 6 months
  • Average bonus earning potential of £5,700 per year and chance to increase your salary by £1,000 every 6 months through our Agent Salary Reward Scheme
  • 33 days' annual leave (including bank holidays), with the option to buy 5 additional days each year

How you'll be rewarded

  • Comprehensive training with clearly defined career progression opportunities
