Discover traineeship track Customer Operations in Utrecht

FINISH YOUR APPLICATION BEFORE NOVEMBER 1ST, 2021!

Ever been a customer? Then you know how important the customer service experience is. Whether you’re buying an iPhone or inquiring about your energy bill: the quality of a company’s support is the secret ingredient that makes or breaks the customer experience. So at VodafoneZiggo, providing the ‘ultimate’ in customer support isn’t an afterthought; it’s a strategic proposition. Are you curious about what next-gen customer processes we have in mind? Or how AI (e.g. as in chatbots) can add customer value? If you have a master’s degree and are looking for a high-impact traineeship, this is the right track for you. Help us make our customers the center of our universe!

Your traineeship: the fast track to a challenging career

Lots of impact, lots of growth opportunities and lots of fun. That’s what the Discover traineeship is all about. As a Discover trainee, you’ll complete three projects. Two of those will be in the customer operations domain. The third will lift you out of your comfort zone to see how well you perform in a business unit with a different focus. During this one-and-a-half-year program, you’ll discover what makes you tick, what you’re capable of, where you want to be… and how we can help you get there.

Some ‘sample’ projects?

Although nothing is set in stone, there is one certainty: you will be a main driver of our Agile transition and help us serve customers in better (always) and revolutionary (sometimes) new ways.  How can we use personalization to optimize and innovate digital customer experience? What strategy should we adopt in order to steer customers towards self-service? And how can we roll that strategy out? You’ll focus on large themes, both from a customer and an operational perspective! This includes convincing and aligning all relevant stakeholders. And since customer processes are interwoven in the fabric of the entire organization, there are many business units that have to embrace these new ways of thinking and working. Disruptive? You bet. But with a grand ambition: to make customers feel heard, respected and understood at all times.
