After you have successfully completed your first three months with the company, you will be eligible to receive a salary increase and enter the next stage of your development. As part of the proceeding months you will receive further training and development, aimed at further enhancing your buildings/repairs knowledge and be able to work on more complex calls. Throughout your time with Rydon, you will have the opportunity to progress your way through our structured grading programme. There are four grades of role and with your increased knowledge and responsibility you will have the opportunity to increase your salary in line with your development to in excess of £22,000 per annum - this is the start of your customer service career.

Experience Required:

To join our fun and energetic team all you need is a passion for great customer service, good communication skills, be self-motivated with a great personality and have the ability to work as part of a team. Previous experience of working in a contact centre is not necessary, though you will need to demonstrate great written skills, good attention to detail, enjoy talking to customers on the phone (with an excellent telephone manner).
