The Role
We are looking for motivated, resilient and people-focused individuals to join our growing contact centre team as HMCTS Agents.
Acting on behalf of His Majesty’s Courts and Tribunals Service, you will handle a mix of inbound and outbound calls, providing clear, professional and supportive guidance to customers. Your role will involve helping people understand their accounts, supporting them to make payments, setting up realistic and bespoke payment plans, and resolving more complex enquiries.
This is a role where empathy and confidence go hand in hand. You’ll need to be comfortable having sometimes challenging conversations, while always aiming to achieve a fair and appropriate outcome for both the customer and our client.
Full induction training is provided, along with ongoing coaching and support, so you’ll be fully equipped to succeed in the role.

What You’ll Need to Succeed
You’ll enjoy helping others and take pride in delivering a high standard of service. You’ll be a confident communicator with strong listening skills, able to balance compassion with assertiveness. A positive attitude, resilience, and self-motivation are key, along with the drive to meet and exceed performance targets. Previous customer service experience is beneficial but not essential.
