DESCRIPTION

Do you love helping people? If the answer is yes, we’d like to hear from you.
Working in our busy Customer Experience Team is challenging, but for the right person it’s a very rewarding environment. We’re all about our customers, so naturally you’ll be a people person with a willingness to ensure that each and every customer who travels with us has an enjoyable experience.
In this role, you’ll mostly be communicating with our customers, largely via email, telephone and live chat. This will involve complaint resolution as well as answering queries from our residents and visitors. Gaining customer feedback and communicating it to other departments to inform business decisions is key.
Blackpool is known for its busy summer and illuminations period, and this is where you can make a real difference, whether it’s out in the resort or on the other end of the phone – it’s all about getting people where they need to be.
This role is ideal for anyone looking for part-time work, with a consistent schedule of 16 hours per week, on Monday and Tuesday only! The full-time equivalent salary for this role is £24,242.40 per year, with the actual pay pro-rated based on your contracted hours.
