Working closely with the sales and customer service team and our surveyors, your responsibilities will include:

• Answering incoming calls and responding to customer enquiries in a friendly, professional and efficient manner.
• Booking property surveys and accurately recording customer information on the company's booking system.
• Coordinating surveyors' diaries, appointments and schedules.
• Providing customers with information about the company's surveying services.
