Job Description

You'll take customer calls and chats at an insurance claims contact centre in Roodepoort, sorting problems on the first contact. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

The site is in Roodepoort; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

What you'll actually do

  • Escalate complex complaints to a team leader with clear case notes.
  • Log every interaction and outcome in the CRM before taking the next call.
  • Meet daily targets for average handle time, quality score and first-call resolution.
  • Reply to emails and live chats within the service-level window.
  • Verify caller identity before sharing any account details, as POPIA requires.

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
  • Basic computer skills: Windows, email and working across a few screens
  • Matric with a pass in English
  • No criminal record, as most clients run a background check

Nice if you have

  • A second language, especially Afrikaans, isiZulu or Portuguese
  • Technical know-how on Wi-Fi, fibre or smartphones

What you get

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

Applying, step by step

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: certified copy of your matric certificate plus a CV with a working cellphone number and email address.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 8 working days.

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

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.

Before you hit apply

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