Your main responsibility will be to resolve customer complaints, delivering a first-class customer experience and speedy resolution to the problem at hand. By doing this, you are bringing real value to both our customers and Virgin Media O2.
As a Customer Service Advisor, you’ll be tasked with assessing and investigating customer complaints. You’ll listen to customers with empathy, taking full ownership of the process until the customer is satisfied with the resolution you propose. As well as speaking on the phone, you’ll also be tasked with creating final resolution letters; drafting excellent correspondence is a key part of this role. Your ability to understand and promptly address customer complaints will establish you as an expert in this role, fostering trust in us as a company and leading to continued loyalty from our customers.
Our team is dedicated to delivering a compassionate service, resolving issues promptly, and meeting our quality-related goals to ensure our customers have complete satisfaction.

Upon completion of your training and induction, you’ll transition to 37.5 hours a week, with these hours falling between 8am and 9pm. Embracing our flexible approach, you'll have the opportunity to work remotely for 3 days and be present in the office for 2 days a week. Weekend work is part of this role, dedicating approximately 20% of your schedule.
