  • Talented salespeople with the ability to upsell multicar and multiproduct
  • IT savvy to swiftly update customers details correctly

No previous experience in insurance or call centres is required. We consider the potential of the candidate, eagerness to work with us, ambition, and enthusiasm, over any previous experience in a similar role. We will teach you the rest!
