Customer Service Administrator – Fixed Term Contract 6 Months

Salary: £26,500 per annum. Hybrid Working

Join Countrywide Environmental and Help Deliver Outstanding Customer Service

Are you an organised and customer-focused administrator who enjoys helping people, solving problems, and keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes? Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same? We’re looking for a Customer Service Administrator to join our friendly and professional team. This is a fantastic opportunity to play a vital role in supporting our customers, field technicians, and wider business operations while developing your career within a growing and successful organisation. If you're a strong communicator with excellent attention to detail and a positive, can-do attitude, we'd love to hear from you. Please note this is a hybrid role with 3 days a week from our office in Newbury, Berkshire.

The Role

As a Customer Service Administrator, you'll be the first point of contact for many of our customers, providing exceptional service and ensuring enquiries are handled professionally and efficiently.

You'll support the day-to-day operation of the business by coordinating service appointments, assisting field technicians, managing customer documentation, and ensuring our internal systems remain accurate and up to date.

This is a varied role that combines customer service, administration, scheduling, data management, and operational support.

What You'll Be Doing

Customer Service & Communication

  • Managing incoming customer enquiries via telephone, email, and internal systems.
  • Providing accurate information and resolving customer queries promptly.
  • Handling customer complaints professionally and supporting their resolution.
  • Following up with customers to ensure satisfaction and maintain excellent service standards.
  • Taking card payments and processing customer transactions.

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.
