Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
So during my role here at British gas what I do in my job role is answering customer call and inquiries. I love the aspect of hybrid working so I have the pressure of working from home and the office. The overview of the job is split into different call types so they typically range from dealing with breakdown calls all the way to landlord inquires.

The new skills I learnt are presentation skills with my skills coach and i really enjoyed presenting my course work becuase it reflecting the work i was doing on calls. I also developed my existing skills in communication and listening skills in my day to day job role which allowed me to be more confident in taking calls and dealing with enquiries.
