- Explaining products, services, guarantees and relevant policies clearly to customers.
- Handling customer questions, concerns and adjustments professionally.
- Managing your daily appointments and schedule to provide a reliable and punctual service.

- Maintaining your company vehicle, tools and installation equipment to a high standard.
- Working closely with colleagues across sales, operations and customer service to deliver an excellent end-to-end customer experience.
