Apprenticeship Sales Development Consultant

SwiftSwitch help businesses save time and money on their business utility costs by providing a free and impartial account management service. Working closely with UK energy, telecom, payment services, water and waste providers. We manage the entire switchover process from start to finish, removing all of the hassle from what can otherwise be demanding and time consuming tasks. In trying economic times, more and more businesses are looking to save as much as possible on their utility costs. Many do so by turning to comparison sites which can often be overwhelming and confusing for the consumer. SwiftSwitch aim to remove all of the complexities and confusion for our customers giving clear, frank and impartial advice. Our account management service offers a more rounded and personalised feel than the usual price-comparison telesales experience. Unlike many of the price comparison services we endeavour to treat all of our clients with exactly the same high standard of service regardless of their size, consumption or value.
