Job Description

Customers phone this telecoms support centre in Pinetown when something has gone wrong, and your job is to put it right. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

This post is in Pinetown (KwaZulu-Natal). Please only apply if you can travel there daily. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

What you'll actually do

  • Troubleshoot routers, fibre connections and app logins step by step.
  • Log every interaction and outcome in the CRM before taking the next call.
  • Handle callers with UK, US or Australian accents and time zones.
  • Attend team huddles and weekly coaching sessions on call recordings.
  • Answer inbound calls within target and greet callers using the approved script.

What you need

  • Able to pass a voice and accent assessment
  • No criminal record, as most clients run a background check
  • Basic computer skills: Windows, email and working across a few screens
  • You stay calm when a caller is angry

Helpful, not essential

  • A second language, especially Afrikaans, isiZulu or Portuguese
  • Previous contact centre or retail customer service experience

On offer

  • Clear promotion path to team leader or quality assessor
  • Monthly performance bonus linked to quality and attendance
  • Company transport home after night shifts
