As a British Gas Service Solver, you are at the front line when our customers need us the most. Whether this is it to support them with no heating, no electrics or a water leak our Solvers are the first voice a customer will hear.

This is more than just a customer service job. A parent with a young child, an elderly or infirm customer or anyone for that matter will be panicked when it's sub-zero outside and there is no heating coming into the house. If you have that caring, calm and patient attitude we want to hear from you so read on and see what it's all about.

Home working is now quite normal, and we encourage that. We will supply all your IT equipment - you’ll just need somewhere to work at home uninterrupted, with a desk, a comfortable chair and a stable, wired internet connection (10mps or greater)

Training period is 7 weeks, 3 weeks virtual learning and 4 weeks minimum virtual grad bay experience.
