A little bit about Parsley Box:

Parsley Box is leading the market for direct-to-consumer meal deliveries for older adults across the UK.

We're looking for empathetic and productive customer care agents to join our close-knit team. Your friends might describe you as the warm and friendly one, the one who sparks up a conversation in any supermarket queue, and the one who, no matter how busy they are, always has time for you. You love to provide great service and engage in authentic conversations with people who appreciate it, and pride yourself on being a reliable team member whose consistency is valued and admired.

This is a telephony-based role, so you’ll be comfortable making connections with our customers and colleagues over the phone.

We have a part-time hybrid opportunity for 21 hours per week, with Friday set as the in-office day.
