Customer Care Agent
A bit about the role:
An opportunity has arisen for a Customer Care Agent with experience of Collections to join our Customer Care Team.
Our Customer Care Agents are there when our customers need us the most. Where, due to their personal circumstances, a customer needs a greater level of understanding, or an extra level of support, you will be working to understand their situation and offering solutions when they are in times of financial difficulties. The Customer Care Agents are the main point of contact for our customers and support with a range of queries, as well as taking payments, managing complaints, and assisting with account-related questions. Customer Care Agents communicate with our customers using various channels such as inbound and outbound telephony and email. Detailed training will be provided to build on your existing experience.
You will help our customers understand their financial and legal obligations and always have ‘treating customers fairly’ at the forefront of your mind.
We encourage applications from people from all backgrounds to join our team at Go Car Credit. Just as our customers come from diverse backgrounds, so do we, and we treat our team and our customers as individuals – with respect and fairness.
