A new contact centre launching on the Isle of Man has received more than 200 applications from potential employees after two successful open day campaigns in Douglas.
As first revealed in Business News, Yello is looking to fill around 100 posts by the end of the year.
Managers at the start-up business were hugely impressed by the level of skill and enthusiasm demonstrated by the islanders who came along to the events and they are confident that they can find the right people locally to fill the roles, which range from customer service consultants to senior management.
‘The recruitment day went incredibly well and the quality of the candidates confirms our belief that we can source almost our entire workforce here in the Isle of Man,’ said Martin Linham, chief executive officer of In-Q Ltd, parent company of Yello.
‘Many people said they loved the concept and the services we are offering and they welcomed the flexibility we offer in terms of roles, shift patterns and career development and training.’
Yello has been established with the support of the Isle of Man Government, who have long recognised the value of a locally based contact centre, providing a much- needed 24/7/365 resource for betting and gaming companies based on and off the island.
