Inbound Telesales Advisor Apprentice | Manchester

£18,530 + on-target commission of £6,000 and uncapped commissions for overachievement + amazing benefits + 25 days’ holiday + opportunities for flexible working

Want to study and work towards professional qualifications while launching your career in a permanent telesales role? Then our Inbound Telesales Advisor Apprentice Scheme could be just what you’re looking for.

An exciting future at Virgin Media
For over 20 years, we’ve been building connections that matter. Now we’re growing every part of our business to connect even more customers to the things and people they care about. And as an Inbound Telesales Advisor Apprentice, you’ll be right at the heart it.

Become an expert in sales

Working in our super-friendly Manchester call centre teams, you’ll learn how to handle enquiries from potential customers and guide them towards the TV, phone, broadband and mobile services that are right for them. The more you know about our products and services, the better you’ll do. So we’ll make sure you’re fully trained before you start taking calls, and will continue providing you with coaching and support throughout your apprenticeship and beyond.

What’s in it for you
The chance to earn good money while working towards a recognised apprenticeship, with lots of opportunities to move onwards and upwards through Virgin Media into team leader positions, business head roles and much, much more. You’ll also enjoy some amazing benefits, including:

  • On target commission (OTC) of £6,000 plus uncapped commissions for overachievement
  • Annual incentive scheme with outstanding prizes for top performers
  • Weekly and monthly incentives where you can win vouchers, early finishes, days off and more
  • 25 days’ holiday a year, rising to 28 days once you’ve been with us five years
  • Unbeatable deals on mobile, broadband, TV and home phone services
  • Choice of a range of personal benefits, including medical plans and dental cover
  • Contributory pension scheme

Work where you work best
Our call centres have remained open during the pandemic, reflecting the fact that our services have become more vital than ever before. But we are still keen for as many of our employees as possible to work from home, including our Inbound Telesales Advisor Apprentices. So after your initial training period, you should get some flexibility over where you work, whether it’s from the comfort of your own home, in a buzzing modern call centre or (most likely) a combination of the two.

What we look for
People who are resilient, enjoy constantly learning new things, and work well in a fast-paced, every-changing environment. As an Inbound Telesales Advisor Apprentice, you’ll be on a 14-week rota covering early, middle and late shifts between 8am-9pm (Monday to Friday) and 8am-6pm (Saturday and Sunday). So it’s essential that you are over 18 years of age and flexible about when you work. If you also have some experience using different IT systems, even better.
