  • Proven experience as a high‑performing CX Advisor, with strong results against quality, productivity, and compliance measures
  • Demonstrated interest in developing a leadership or Team Leader career path
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills
  • Good understanding of Contact Centre KPIs (e.g. quality, AHT, adherence, shrinkage)
  • Organised and detail‑focused, particularly when supporting meetings or investigations
  • A calm, professional, and supportive approach in fast‑paced environments
  • Flexibility to support a seven‑day operation, including rota‑based weekend working

It would be great if you also have

  • Exposure to leadership activities such as shift support, huddles, or deputising
  • Confidence handling sensitive information with discretion
  • Experience supporting change or new ways of working on the frontline
