Job Description

A good call centre job in Cape Town CBD gives you training, shifts you can plan around and room to move up. Good for someone who wants to build a solid track record they can put on their CV.

You'll be based at an online retail help desk in Cape Town CBD. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

What you'll actually do

  • Verify caller identity before sharing any account details, as POPIA requires.
  • Meet daily targets for average handle time, quality score and first-call resolution.
  • Troubleshoot routers, fibre connections and app logins step by step.
  • Escalate complex complaints to a team leader with clear case notes.
  • Handle callers with UK, US or Australian accents and time zones.
  • Log every interaction and outcome in the CRM before taking the next call.

You'll need

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

Nice if you have

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

What you get

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

How to apply

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Cape Town CBD really suit you before you apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: 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. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 8 working days, usually by phone.

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

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.

Tips to get shortlisted

  • Practise answering "Tell me about a time you helped an unhappy customer" out loud before the voice interview.
  • Take the online assessment in a quiet room with a headset; most BPOs screen out candidates on background noise.
