Job Details

Are you looking for a part-time role with fixed shifts that work around your current commitments and lifestyle? Want a role that gives you job satisfaction and career progression but leaves you free to enjoy your weekends?

If so, we have the opportunity for you! Here at Domestic & General we are excited to announce that we now have part-time hours available within our Customer Support sales team.

About the Role

This vacancy is in our multi-skilled Customer Support sales team, meaning that you’ll be the first point of contact for all customers who call us with warranty and insurance related queries. You’ll provide excellent customer service and use your sales skills to give added peace of mind, by           up-selling other products that customers can purchase that best suit their needs.

We are offering part-time fixed shifts with hours you can choose from, ranging from 16 up to 35 hours per week between 13:00 - 22:00 with no weekend work. The Recruitment team will be happy to discuss these in more detail should you be shortlisted for telephone interview.

PLEASE NOTE YOU MUST BE ABLE TO COMMIT TO THE FOLLOWING TRAINING SCHEDULE:

We want you to have the best induction possible so we will require you to join a 5 day (Monday – Friday) full-time training induction, starting on the 15th July and taking place between the hours of 09:00 - 17:30.  There will also be two follow up training dates on 25th July 09:00 -17:30 and the 1st August 09:00 - 17:30 that we would need you to attend.

About Us

We are Domestic & General. We’re a proud partner to leading manufacturer and retail brands worldwide, taking the worry out of appliance breakdowns for almost 9 million customers in the UK.

We have a five-year plan to transform the way we work, serve our customers and take care of our colleagues – and you can help make it happen. So, what’s happening?

  • In November 2018 we started work on a £1.4m Office Refurbishment in Brighton, which is due to be completed in early 2019 and give all our employees a truly world class office to work in
  • We’ve just launched a brand-new Agent Progression Programme which shows our commitment to helping all our call centre agents develop and progress their careers. Agents can move up through the levels from day one and will be rewarded with more senior job titles, more time off the phone for development and a huge £1,150 in rewards (in addition to the regular bonuses)
  • We’ve also just launched Exchange, which is a forum for employees and senior managers to regularly meet and discuss issues that affect us all. It will give colleagues a place where they can openly share their views

About You

A skilled customer service and sales professional, you’ll thrive on beating sales targets – but you’ll always make sure that the customer’s interests come first. You understand the customer’s perspective and have a natural ability to build a strong rapport and demonstrate empathy when needed. You’ll be a confident multi-tasker who can be resilient and show a great team spirit! Experience working in a call centre environment, or in a targeted sales or customer service workplace would be beneficial, but not essential.

The most successful Customer Support Representatives champion the customer voice and pride themselves on customer satisfaction. They enjoy healthy competition and combining excellent service with the ability to meet sales targets and offer customers products which meet their needs. With plenty of energy and commitment, you’ll always strive to do your very best.

Working in a sales team of up to 15 Customer Support Representatives, you’ll enjoy a vibrant workplace in a fantastic city centre location.
