Job Description

Are you on the lookout for a new position that offers remote working? 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 Support Advisor intake within our Product Replacement 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.

About the Role

As a Product Replacement Customer Support Representative, you'll be the final point of contact for customers with domestic appliances that have been written off. You'll provide excellent customer service and give added peace of mind by replacing their broken-down appliance in a timely, hassle free manner.

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 Bedworth Town Centre.

This department has flexible shift patterns based on a 30-hour contract, between the opening hours below. The Recruitment team will be happy to discuss these in more detail should you be shortlisted for telephone interview.

Salary & Bonuses

  • A highly competitive £15,080 starting salary with a pay increase after six months to £16,685 (based on 30hrs per week)
  • Bonus earning potential of up to £1,080 per annum, earned through excellent customer service and call quality
  • For all our Agents, we ensure the salary and bonus opportunity are balanced and for our highest performing Agents there is an opportunity to earn higher rates of salary and additional bonus based on performance
