Essential Skills

About you:

With previous experience in customer service, ideally within a call centre or customer facing you'll be a team player with excellent communication skills, working in a fast-paced environment.

• You'll be a natural problem solver with the ability to think outside of the box.
• Be able to communicate in a confident, clear and friendly manner.

All successful applicants will be subject to criminal & credit checks in line with our Reference Policy. In order to apply for this position you must not have had an unsuccessful application for a similar role within the last 6 months.

In accordance with Home Office guidance successful candidates will be required to evidence their right to work in the UK before commencement of employment. This role is not one we would typically consider for sponsorship under the Skilled Worker route due to, for example, the relevant Home Office requirements on skills level, not being met. Candidates are therefore encouraged to consider their own right to work options without Next sponsorship.
