Āu Mahi | What You Will Do
Join our small, dedicated team as a Contact Centre Advisor at UC! We're looking for an enthusiastic individual with excellent communication skills and a passion for delivering exceptional customer service. In this role, you'll handle application and enrolment inquiries, resolve a multitude of issues, and provide support to our valued students and the wider UC community. You will work across multiple mediums (phone, email, and live chat) and multiple systems to provide a seamless and positive student/customer journey. If you thrive on helping others and enjoy working collaboratively, this is the perfect opportunity for you!
Mōu | Who You Are
Ideally, you will have 2+ years' experience in a frontline customer service role (experience working in a Contact Centre environment would be an advantage). Previous experience working in tertiary education would also be desirable.
You will have excellent interpersonal skills and will build a good rapport with ease, communicating well via email, phone and live chat. You will engage with not only a diverse student population, but stakeholders across the University, the wider community and beyond. You will be confident liaising with people from all walks of life, cultures, ethnicities and abilities - patience and empathy are a must.
You will engage in positive and respectful communication with your team, fostering an inclusive atmosphere where ideas and feedback are valued and shared. You will appreciate diverse perspectives, recognising that everyone brings unique strengths to the team. You will be inquisitive and get satisfaction from tackling challenges and problem solving and engage in ongoing learning and investigation.
You will have demonstrable computer skills and be able to confidently navigate multiple systems to find information, actively assist and problem solve. You will remain calm under pressure, adapt to shifting priorities and proactively respond to new challenges and demands as they arise.
If this sounds like you, please apply!
