You'll also troubleshoot technical problems with customer adverts, escalating complex cases to the appropriate teams to keep everything running smoothly. We know our customers have high expectations, and we're looking for individuals who can confidently manage a high volume of queries with patience, professionalism, and a calm demeanour.
