Job Description

A good call centre job in Gqeberha gives you training, shifts you can plan around and room to move up. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

You'll report in Gqeberha. Relocation is not covered for this one. The first two weeks are spent shadowing someone experienced.

What you'll actually do

  • Attend team huddles and weekly coaching sessions on call recordings.
  • Troubleshoot routers, fibre connections and app logins step by step.
  • Reply to emails and live chats within the service-level window.
  • Follow up on open tickets and phone customers back when promised.
  • Handle callers with UK, US or Australian accents and time zones.
  • Escalate complex complaints to a team leader with clear case notes.
  • Process address changes, refunds and cancellations on the billing system.

You'll need

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

Helpful, not essential

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

What you get

  • Medical aid option after probation
  • Paid training for 2 to 4 weeks before you go live
  • Company transport home after night shifts

  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
