You’ll be in the thick of the operation with a great team who are committed to providing top-class customer service. You’ll answer and make calls to a diverse range of customers who may be enquiring about making a booking for their next holiday or looking to move their freight items across the Cook Strait. Whether it’s providing the best customer solution or going the extra mile to find out more information, keeping the customer at the core of everything you do is the key to delivering a great experience.
While taking and making phone calls is the foundation of the role, developing skills to communicate with customers in an omni-channel manner, particularly through digital and social channels will be important.

We are looking for enthusiastic team players with a positive can-do attitude, fantastic communication skills and ability to remain calm under pressure. You’ll be tech savvy and can pick up new systems quickly and have high attention to detail.
The successful applicants will display the following experience and traits:
- Experience working in an operational contact centre, preferably within the travel / hospitality or freight & logistics industries.
- Confident working with reservation and operational software as well as Microsoft Office products and phone systems.
- Driven by meeting targets and commercial goals.
- Committed to providing outstanding customer service.
- You’ll be adaptable and can take operational disruption in your stride.
What’s on offer is a competitive salary package, a convenient CBD location and staff travel benefits on our ferries during off-peak times. If this role sounds like you then jump aboard and be part of the journey.
