If you're great with people and can be welcoming and confident with customers, you could start your career by training as a Customer Service Apprentice with GLL at Oasis Leisure Centre in Swindon, Wiltshire.

This is a 12 month full time apprenticeship where you’ll earn as you learn and start your career with GLL. You’ll learn how to deliver the very highest standards of customer service whether in person, on the phone or by email. Through supported work-based learning, you’ll become adept at handling customer enquiries, processing money and card payments and using various software systems. The scheme will also give you a good grounding in sales, using various methods such as outreach, events, customer tours of the leisure centre and cold calling. During this apprenticeship, you’ll work towards your Level 2 Diploma in Customer Service, Employer Rights and Responsibilities and, where applicable, Functional Skills English and Maths.

You’ll need to:

• Be friendly – you’ll be helping lots of customers from all backgrounds
• Be hard-working – our leisure centres open weekends and early mornings (don’t worry; you won’t have to do them all the time!)
• Enjoy learning – we’ll train you to get a range of different qualifications
• Use computers – some knowledge of Microsoft Office (i.e. Word, Excel, Outlook) would be an advantage

These apprenticeships are based in Better Leisure Centres, which are run by GLL – the UK’s largest leisure operator – so if you’re hard-working and pass your apprenticeship, you’ll have the opportunity to build a long-term career with us.
