Contact Centre Deputy

As Contact Centre Deputy, you will take a hands-on leadership role in the daily running of the contact centre, with a clear focus on driving sales conversion, coaching and developing Booking Coordinators, and ensuring operational excellence.

Working closely with the Contact Centre Managers, you will be accountable for maintaining high performance across inbound and outbound activity, embedding best practice sales behaviours, and ensuring KPIs such as handle rate, conversion, and job despatch are consistently achieved.

Key Responsibilities

Sales Performance & Conversion

Actively drive sales conversion across the contact centre by role-modelling effective call handling and objection handling techniques. Support Booking Coordinators in converting customer enquiries into confirmed jobs, stepping in on complex calls where required. Monitor call quality and performance metrics, providing real‑time coaching to improve conversion and customer outcomes. Handle escalated customer enquiries and complaints professionally, turning challenges into sales and retention opportunities.

Training & Development

Lead the onboarding and training of new Booking Coordinators, ensuring they are confident, competent, and sales-focused from day one. Provide ongoing coaching, call listening, and feedback to embed consistent standards and continuous improvement. Support the development of existing team members to maximise performance, engagement, and career progression.

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.
