Job Description

A good call centre job in Komani gives you training, shifts you can plan around and room to move up. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

You'll report in Komani. Relocation is not covered for this one. You'll start with a short induction before working on your own.

What your day looks like

  • Attend team huddles and weekly coaching sessions on call recordings.
  • Handle callers with UK, US or Australian accents and time zones.
  • Follow up on open tickets and phone customers back when promised.
  • Log every interaction and outcome in the CRM before taking the next call.
  • Answer inbound calls within target and greet callers using the approved script.
  • Reply to emails and live chats within the service-level window.
  • Troubleshoot routers, fibre connections and app logins step by step.

What you need

  • Open to rotating shifts, including nights and weekends for offshore campaigns
  • Able to pass a voice and accent assessment
  • You stay calm when a caller is angry
  • Matric with a pass in English
  • No criminal record, as most clients run a background check
  • Clear, neutral spoken English and good typing speed (around 30 wpm)

Helpful, not essential

  • Technical know-how on Wi-Fi, fibre or smartphones
  • A Customer Service NQF Level 2 or 4 learnership certificate

What's in it for you

  • Paid training for 2 to 4 weeks before you go live
  • Monthly performance bonus linked to quality and attendance
  • Clear promotion path to team leader or quality assessor
  • Company transport home after night shifts

How to apply for this job

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): certified copy of your matric certificate, a CV with a working cellphone number and email address plus certified copy of your ID.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 10 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Komani.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

  • Take the online assessment in a quiet room with a headset; most BPOs screen out candidates on background noise.
  • Put any shift work (retail, restaurant, security) on your CV; recruiters want proof you turn up for rotating hours.
