As one of our Future Service associates, you’ll be a problem solver for our customers.

Our customers are important to us, so we always aim to resolve any issues they have the first time they contact us. This might be a simple question, or you might need to use diagnostic techniques to identify the root cause of the problem.

You’ll book service requests with suppliers and keep customers informed with all the relevant information. You’ll also make sure everything is recorded and documented correctly, so we’ve got good quality insight captured for all customer calls and faults.

To do this, we’ll help you develop your interpersonal skills, knowledge and ability to help the customer. You’ll learn how to have great conversations and be empowered to wow our customers. It’s a constant learning curve, finding out lots of new and useful skills that you can use in your day-to-day job and beyond. 

This job is available in the Enterprise part of our business.
