Life as a Customer Service Agent at Northgate

An Northgate branch is a busy, fast-paced place to be and, as a Customer Service Agent, you will be right at the very centre of it. You’re often the first point of contact for customers; so confidently delivering a great service with a smile is second nature. Where you really excel is in managing more than one task at a time - from resolving a customer rental query, administration of a customer account or overseeing the daily vehicle movements in and out of branch.

You don’t need any previous industry or vehicle rental administration experience to join our team (our proven induction training will take care of that!) but you’ll need all of your customer service know-how, administration skill and most importantly your calm, ‘can-do’ attitude (along with a Full UK or EU Driving Licence, of course!) to get things done.

As a Customer Service Agent with Northgate, we offer:

Of course, a great basic salary, but there’s much more available for you at Northgate than just that. Some of our most popular benefits include (but aren’t limited to) …

• A fantastic quarterly bonus scheme (£1,436 pa OTE)
• Start with 24 days annual leave, rising to 26 days with service plus the flexibility to buy or sell an extra 5 days each year. Of course, you'll have public holidays too, plus an extra day off to celebrate your birthday!
• free life assurance (2 x your salary)
• well-being services (incl. 24/7 GP service, mental health support and physiotherapy + Health Cash Plan, Dental Plan & Travel Insurance)
• exclusive colleague-only vehicle-leasing schemes
• pension & save-as-you-earn share scheme
• Our Benefits App offering unlimited access to a huge range of retailer discounts and cashback
• Stream App for all our colleagues - a Financial Wellbeing app that gives you more control over your pay. Not only does it let you choose when to get paid it also lets you put money aside each month and in addition you can get discounts on your shopping, check what benefits you're eligible for and can even put you in touch with a financial coach!
