Job Description

You'll take customer calls and chats at an insurance claims contact centre in Paarl, sorting problems on the first contact. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

This post is Paarl-based, with most of your time spent at an insurance claims contact centre. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

What your day looks like

  • Reply to emails and live chats within the service-level window.
  • Troubleshoot routers, fibre connections and app logins step by step.
  • Verify caller identity before sharing any account details, as POPIA requires.
  • Answer inbound calls within target and greet callers using the approved script.
  • Follow up on open tickets and phone customers back when promised.
  • Process address changes, refunds and cancellations on the billing system.

Must-haves

  • Able to pass a voice and accent assessment
  • Matric with a pass in English
  • Open to rotating shifts, including nights and weekends for offshore campaigns
  • Clear, neutral spoken English and good typing speed (around 30 wpm)

What's in it for you

  • Company transport home after night shifts
  • Paid training for 2 to 4 weeks before you go live
  • Clear promotion path to team leader or quality assessor
  • Medical aid option after probation

How to apply

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): proof of residence for the background check, certified copy of your ID plus a CV with a working cellphone number and email address.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 6 working days, usually by phone.
