- Strong computer literacy and the ability to navigate multiple software systems simultaneously, with a keen eye for detail in data entry.
- A patient, empathetic, and resilient attitude, with the ability to remain calm and professional under pressure and when dealing with challenging calls.
- Reliability and a strong work ethic, with the flexibility to work various shifts, including weekends or evenings, as required by the client in Greenwich SE10.
