Job Description

Customers phone this international outsourcing contact centre in Somerset West when something has gone wrong, and your job is to put it right. It suits someone who likes knowing exactly what a good day's work looks like.

You'll report in Somerset West. Relocation is not covered for this one.

The work, day to day

  • Meet daily targets for average handle time, quality score and first-call resolution.
  • Escalate complex complaints to a team leader with clear case notes.
  • Follow up on open tickets and phone customers back when promised.
  • Handle callers with UK, US or Australian accents and time zones.
  • Answer inbound calls within target and greet callers using the approved script.
  • Troubleshoot routers, fibre connections and app logins step by step.

Must-haves

  • Open to rotating shifts, including nights and weekends for offshore campaigns
  • Able to pass a voice and accent assessment
  • Clear, neutral spoken English and good typing speed (around 30 wpm)
  • You stay calm when a caller is angry
  • Basic computer skills: Windows, email and working across a few screens
  • No criminal record, as most clients run a background check

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
  • Company transport home after night shifts
  • Medical aid option after probation

How to apply for this job

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: certified copy of your matric certificate plus proof of residence for the background check.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 5 working days.

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

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

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