Call Centre Assistant Role

Would you like a role where you can make a real difference to people in their own homes? If so, sounds like you’d be a great fit here. If you’ve ever considered a career in optics, this Call Centre Assistant role could be perfect for you. 

About the Role

As a Call Centre Assistant, you don’t need to have previous optics experience, you just need to be prepared to create an outstanding experience for our customers each and every time.

This role will primarily involve receiving a high volume of incoming calls and making outbound calls and booking appointments for our customers. We are looking for someone who has an excellent telephone manner and is confident dealing with people. There will be some admin duties required in this role too.

Our ideal candidate will have strong communication skills and have experience working in a call centre type environment. This is a busy and fast-paced role, so we are looking for someone who can work at pace and has excellent time management and organisational skills.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
