Jobs in Skirwith

We are currently recruiting 2 x Customer Service Advisors to join our central team based in Kirkby Thore on a 12-month fixed-term contract, covering maternity leave.

We want our customers to be as valued and appreciated as our colleagues are (we're a Top Global Employer don't you know) so we're looking for people who can bring their personality and experience to the role and be a great ambassador for our business.

As the Customer Service Advisor, you are the heartbeat of our business and unite us with our customers, you bring our products to life and create solutions by putting yourself in the customer's shoes and investing time to know their business.

We can offer a flexible hybrid working model on successful completion of training.

What we're looking for:

We are looking for people who are happy to go the extra mile for our customers. Experience is great, but it's not everything - if you have the right attitudes and values we can always teach you the know-how. We're looking for:

· Great communication and effective listening

· The initiative to think of creative solutions

· You'll be able to use systems and technology and be able to pick up new software

· Good attention to detail

· Able to prioritise tasks and get to the most important bits first

· Identify the changing needs of the business and our customers

What you'll be doing:

You will be speaking to our customers via phone and email to assess their needs, giving guidance to assure they get the right product for their project when they need it. You will be using our systems to process orders, check details, update deliveries and weights, and other variables that could affect the service, keeping the customer informed along the way. As you get to grips with the role you will be able to specialise in other areas such as bespoke, exports or account management where you will further develop your knowledge. We'll provide learning and development along the way to set you up for success and help you to be the best you can be.

· Reply to customer enquiries, process orders and contact customers across multiple businesses using a variety of communication methods.

· Check the accuracy of orders to minimise the number of credits and customer issues/complaints.
