**About the Role**

As a Customer Contact Officer, you will respond and direct all inbound calls as well as complete online enquiries on behalf of our State Government client.

Guided by and following work instructions provided by the system called Knowledge, you will actively listen to each caller to understand their needs and their enquiry.

Then using Knowledge/work instructions and your great customer service skills, you will:

Sometimes callers share details that others may find distressing such as family violence, assault, death or injury.
