Every spring, customer demand ramps up and we support Karcher by bringing in experienced, resilient Customer Care Agents who can hit the ground running and deliver great outcomes under pressure.
This is not a new team. You'll be joining an established, high performing Customer Care department of 14 experienced colleagues, providing additional support during Karcher's busiest period of the year.
This role is offered on an initial 6 month contract starting February. While it's contract, Karcher is a progressive employer and permanent opportunities may arise for strong performers, subject to business needs.

Owning complaints end-to-end- resolving issues with accountability and empathy
Liaising with logistics providers and internal teams to ensure timely resolutions
Raising credit notes, arranging repairs and handling warranty queries
Keeping systems updated and working to clear SLAs and KPIs
You'll be trusted to manage your time well, stay calm under pressure, and see issues through properly even when customers are frustrated or demanding.What we're really looking for
This role suits someone who isn't fazed by challenge.
Confident, clear communicator with strong customer service experience
Resilient and emotionally intelligent able to handle difficult conversations
Comfortable working at pace with a strong focus on output and accuracy
Organised, detail-driven and able to juggle multiple priorities
Confident using IT systems (SAP / Google Workspace experience is useful but not essential)
