Wanted: Skilled Soft-Sellers dedicated to Customer Service

At Percepta, in the Customer relationship centres, our focus has been traditionally responsive. In our area of business we usually wait for the customer to call us and then we take action from there. We help them to the best of our ability and then, hopefully, they go away happy and satisfied. However we are trialling a scheme where we follow up with something extra, a special addition to the services we offer and it’s something everyone wants.

A bargain!

We are looking for two enthusiastic and motivated individuals to make outbound sales calls while maintaining an excellent standard of customer service. The role will involve calling existing customers and offering them products that would interest them as a special customer rate.

We’re not looking for fast talking pushy salespeople; we want people whose first focus is customer service but who can also identify buying signals and close the deal. We’re looking for friendly outgoing people who are self motivated and driven to achieve targets.

These are part time roles for 20 hours per week (4 hours per day between 3pm and 8pm Monday to Friday). It is initially a 3 month fixed term contract or secondment with the opportunity to become permanent. If you have experience in a soft selling environment, excellent communication skills and like to push yourself to achieve your goals, then click the link here to apply.

Wanted: An Automotive Sales Manager Who Focuses on Quality, Not Quick Talking

We’re looking for someone with experience and enthusiasm to be a key member of our sales team, proactively working to achieve specific revenue, profit and customer satisfaction targets.

Our idea candidate will be experienced in the testing field or have equivalent qualifications, excellent IT skills and great communication skills. They will be self motivated and enthusiastic with an excellent eye for accuracy and detail.

So if you think you are the one who can top our tests and be the person to help us ensure our programmes are free of holes, click the link here to apply online.
