Currently our Hungarian team is supporting one of the biggest telecommunications company in Switzerland from Budapest, where the language requirement is C1-level German. We're still at early stages as we're in the middle of increasing the number of colleagues we have, meaning we currently have several open vacancies in this specific role. We're working hard to enroll company-wide ways of working and to introduce local processes and widen the list of our employee benefits. If you're keen to be part of a journey which has just started and motivated to grow in your role in a fast pace, we believe this role will be interesting for you.  
 
What You’ll Be Doing

• Phone calls - You'll be answering incoming phone calls from Swiss customers related to their IT problems (network, mobility, hardware) 

• Care to Sales – Close to end of your probation you'll be trained in a so-called Care to Sales activity where you'll be able to identify customers who would benefit from switching products or extending their subscriptions. This will be a task everyone will need to proactively do where we'll provide all the necessary training for it. Please note this role includes Care to Sales element but isn't a Sales role!

• Providing exceptional service – Your performance will be measured alongside KPIs such as Customer Satisfaction, First Contact Resolution, Call Quality, Handled Calls, Dispatch Rate

• Assisting new colleagues – The longer you're on the account the more you'll be asked to help your new colleagues with their questions; especially during their first couple of weeks on calls

• Improvement ideas - You're expected to challenge our way of working and proactively share ideas around our internal tools and knowledge bases for us to see what we can improve and update

Who You Are

• Language skills - You have C1-level German skill for your daily work and at least B-level English for internal company communication 

• Technical background – You have prior experience in customer service or any similar IT services; hospitality background can count if you have provable IT skills

• Customer oriented mindset – You thrive to provide exceptional service for customers; a service which you would expect as well as a customer yourself

• Strong empathy - You understand that customers can be sometimes upset about their problems; you assist them with patience and empathy

• Willingness to learn – You will be learning different modules throughout your journey where at times some require longer time to be mastered; you have patience and understand that knowledge comes with practice and time 

• "Start-up mindset”- You understand building a new team takes lot of effort and often comes with changes; you're open to changes in direction and can adapt easily if all tools are given for it

• “One of us” mindset – You know how to be part of a team by helping your colleagues whenever you feel like you know something better and can share knowledge with someone; you'll also be expected to hold side by side listening sessions with new colleagues on training
