• Deliver exceptional service, providing clear guidance and reassurance during routine customer enquiries while maintaining a commercially focused mindset.
• Accurately capture customer details, process new sales, apply policy upgrades, and manage retentions and cancellations across multiple systems compliant with industry standards.
• Work collaboratively within a growing, high-performing Green Flag Rescue team to consistently meet and exceed sales, retention, and quality performance targets.

Skills and experience we're looking for:

• Demonstrable sales experience (preferred) with a confident, persuasive, and professional telephone manner.
• Strong objection-handling and retention skills, with the ability to turn challenging conversations into positive customer outcomes.
• Excellent active listening and questioning techniques to identify underlying needs, uncover cross-sell opportunities, and recommend tailored cover solutions.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, target-driven environment while maintaining close attention to detail and high service standards.
• Good IT skills, with confidence using multiple systems and applications simultaneously to handle calls and log policy changes efficiently.
