10.11.09

Leicester Tigers captain and New Zealand Centre Aaron Mauger will be opening tonight’s recruitment event at Sytner’s Grove Park contact centre. Due to growth, Sytner has created six jobs at their national BMW & MINI contact centre in Leicester.

Job hunters at the event which runs from 4pm to 7pm will be able to meet the team at reservations centre and gain information on the new roles and opportunities.

The new jobs will suit anyone looking for an exciting challenge as part of a successful team. If you are self motivated, customer focused and energetic, Karin Hardy, Regional Divisional Manager for Sytner says this could be just the job for you.  

The key responsibilities include giving really great first telephone impressions to Sytner customers, handling aftersales enquiries and reservations and following up enquiries and sales opportunities.

Jaz Hans, 39, joined the reservation centre in June this year as a Reservations Advisor and hasn’t looked back. Hans said “I had been out of work and applied for a job at the reservations centre and was immediately successful. My job involves taking inbound telephone calls and booking in services for BMW and Mini for 14 dealerships which keeps me busy. I enjoy my job and at Sytner you are encouraged to be responsible for your own progression with support always on hand.”

The jobs have been created due to a sustained period of growth for Sytner across the UK, bucking the trend for the motor trade sector. The Sytner Group is the UK’s leading retailer of new and used prestige cars, achieving 6^th position in The Sunday Times ’20 Best Big Companies to Work For’ award.
