Service Support Rep

Hi James, a driving licence is not always needed for the job so do not worry about this as some of the positions do not require you to be driving ☺️
Actually, most of the positions to be more precise

Hi James, which role would you be interested in?
Rep roles usually need a driving license, concept roles usually don't

Thank you Florence! I have wanted to become a rep for some time now, but I've always been slightly worried that I may need a licence to do the job. This is a big thing off my mind.

I am interested in becoming a hotel/service rep but I'm also considering concept roles.

Another thing is I am only fluent in English - would this have any affect?

I was thinking of asking that question also about being only fluent in English. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks

Hi both, speaking only English does not hinder your chances of being successful, I have had lots of English staff who don't speak another language

We have a lot of UK customers so definitely not a problem :-)

I also have nearly 3 years experience dealing with customers while working in a busy farm shop which is a job I love, and I really like rising to the challenges that each shift there brings for me.
