CCP has passionately supported candidates with ‘customer contact’ job opportunities since 2010. We focus on partnering with our fantastic clients, immersing ourselves in their brand when they’re looking for talented, culturally aligned people to join their business.

We have partnered with a financial services company based in Ashford, Kent as we look to recruit an experienced Contact Centre Manager on an initial 18-month FTC managing a c35FTE operation.

This fully operational role requires someone with a blended customer service and sales-through-service background to take primary responsibility for the day-to-day running of the contact centre operation.

You’ll focus on elements of BAU service and identify internal and external challenges and pain points before suggesting improvements to senior management to enable a smooth and high-quality customer and people experience.

Within this BAU activity, you will focus on areas including (but not limited to) resource planning, cost to serve and training needs analysis, so, you’ll therefore engage with key internal stakeholders to ensure maximum productivity and output of the operation.

  • Experience leading a small to medium sized contact centre

  • Experience in identifying and implementing and improving cost-to-serve and self-service processes and functions.
  • Impeccable customer service skills
  • Excellent communication in both written and verbal forms.

Based on the nature of the role, this will require someone to be based in the office full time, however, ad-hoc remote working a couple of days a month may be considered.
