As retail – and the role of tech within it – fast evolves, skill sets, training needs and career paths need to adapt at the same pace. In what skills must we invest to grow the retailers of tomorrow and make retail a career that attracts the very best?

Over the past five years apprenticeships have been transformed into a high-quality skills programme for learners and employers ensuring accessibility for all.

Keeping teams motivated and productive in a disparate, more virtual working environment can be difficult. It requires great leaders who know how to boost morale and create a feeling of togetherness, no matter where their teams are based. When there’s a confident leader at the helm, teams can be more productive, happy, and conflict-free.

New research reveals 50% of recruitment leaders believe at least half of all skills gaps could be addressed by better use of data.

With our flexible, expert customer service teams, we're supporting clients through their busiest times of the year, with extra resourcing, thorough planning, insight and smart technology.

Our vast range of customer services for local authorities includes general enquiries, council switchboards, advice lines, complaints handling & one-stop-shops.

Using innovative data and insight software, we can spot the signs of customers falling into debt, provide earlier intervention support and try and prevent it from happening at all.

We tailor every collections response to the individual, through empathetic agents and technology that personalises customer journeys.

Flexibility is always a priority for any contact centre. When there are peaks in demand, we’ll provide back-up with the operational flexibility that guarantees a confident, sure-footed response. This could involve augmenting your teams with extra staff, introducing self-serve options, analysing customer segmentation to get the most from existing capacity, enabling home-working and more.

We rapidly mobilise contact centre teams to help organisations support customers during difficult times – helping to protect revenue and business continuity.
