If you're outgoing, full of energy and love talking to people, you'd be better off in sales with EE.

Maybe you've worked in retail, or hospitality before. You know how to deal with customers but you're looking for something more exciting - a job that's going to challenge you. And, of course, you want to earn a bit more cash.

Our team's in Newcastle and North Tyneside are full of people like you - so you'll be in great company here.

What does being a sales advisor involve?

You'll join a lively sales team in our contact centre. We'll train you to take incoming calls from existing EE customers and help them find the best deals on their phones and broadband. You'll also help them to navigate the different tech products we sell.

You need to be a great listener as well as a fluent talker. A lot of the time, you'll pick up on something that someone has said, then use that to match them with the perfect product.

Forget what you've heard about sales

Don't let what you've heard about sales put you off. Let's smash a few myths

• Yes, there are targets to hit. But the kind of people who like sales, love that. You're probably naturally competitive. You get a buzz out of beating the person next to you. You hate being bored at work.
• It's not "cold calling". The calls come in to you and you decide how best you can help the customer. That's why we value resourceful people who like fixing problems.
• People say it's "hard selling". It's really not! You're basically talking to people about fun tech stuff that they already want. Who doesn't love a better phone, faster broadband or a new console?

Why you'll be better off at EE

GREAT MONEY - you start on £26,116 which goes up to £26,738 after 8 months.
