Improve Every Metric that Counts
“In any business, it’s the way you treat your customers that sets you apart. Through selecting and recruiting the right individuals, and continually investing in their skills and capabilities, your business will thrive.”
We understand that Customer Contact is often overlooked as a career of choice. With entry level candidates often drawn to more traditional career paths, largely influenced by advice promoted by schools, colleges and universities.
But not here!
In early 2023 we launched the Customer Contact, Service and Experience division within our Business Academy. Built specifically to promote careers in the rewarding and dynamic world of customer contact centres. An industry suited to individuals who enjoy dealing with people, value empathy, are quick thinking and have excellent IT and communication skills.
The S&A Customer Contact, Service & Experience Academy
We are recruiting and / or training, through professional government funded apprenticeships and specialist commercial training programmes, motivated individuals able to step into a role that values the ability to connect with people, solve problems, and provide exceptional service.
As a Customer Contact Centre professional, you’ll be at the forefront of creating positive customer experiences, mastering the art of effective communication, and finding solutions that leave a lasting impact. These careers offer not just a job but a chance to grow in a fast-paced environment, develop valuable skills, and be part of a supportive team that recognizes and rewards your contributions.
Embarking on a career in customer service, in whatever form, provides plenty of opportunities to grow into team leaders, managers, division and business leaders. Offering successful people, a route to a 6-figure salary and key executive positions. Such a career path presents many opportunities to diversity into sales, service, IT support, complaints and regulatory supervision as well as other rewarding specialist careers.
Within our Business Academy, we are on a mission to promote the industry by explaining the benefits of such a diverse set of opportunities that matter to real people, customers with a need.
