Customer Service
At British Airways we pride ourselves on delivering impeccable customer service, and our people are among the best in the business at doing just that.
That's because our dynamic and diverse teams bring their unique and original personalities to work every day, delighting our customers with a little bit of wit, lots of warmth, and a great knowledge of our products.
If you’re a natural people person, you could thrive in our Global Engagement Centres or in an Airport Customer Services role.
Airport Customer Services
Happy holidays are in your hands. Our Airport Customer Services teams at Heathrow and Gatwick are often the first contact our customers have with British Airways when they arrive at the airport.
You'll play a vital role guiding them through check-in, departure, boarding, arrivals, and connections.
It’s a fast-paced environment when you work in Airport Customer Services, but no two days are the same. If you’re naturally helpful, warm, and welcoming, then our customers will be delighted to have you on hand.
Customer Experience Representative
Our Customer Experience Representatives are friendly faces and trusted ambassadors for the British Airways brand. Your role is to make the whole experience within the terminal, from arrival to onboarding, simple and hassle-free. It’s about adding little personal touches along the way, and always being ready to answer questions. This is a job where you can bring your unique and original personality to work every day.
Location
To say that you'll be at the centre of things when you join the Airport Customer Service team is an understatement.
Based within Terminal 5 and Terminal 3 at London Heathrow, you'll be working in the UK's largest international airport.
Or, if you come on board with Gatwick Ground Services (GGS), you’ll be working out of the South Terminal at London Gatwick.
They’re fast-moving places to work, but hugely exciting too.
Global Engagement Centres
A customer's experience with British Airways begins long before they enter the airport, and often continues after they return.
Our Global Engagement Centres are where we answer all their questions, change bookings, and provide our highly-valued personal service.
We set high standards but match them with top-level training, support, and development opportunities.
Customer Service Advisor
Whether dealing with first-time British Airways customers, or frequent-flying members of our Executive Club, you'll aim to delight each one in a way that feels good to you.
You'll focus on meeting all customer needs, resolving their queries, and leaving a great impression – a positive experience will build loyalty.
The key is listening and then being able to share your knowledge of our network and products. Don’t worry, we’ll teach you about that part. We just need you to bring your perfect people skills and original personality to the table.
Location
You'll work in one of our UK Engagement Centres, based at Manchester’s Towers Business Park or Bamburgh Court in Newcastle.
When you start, you'll join a six-week full time New Entrant training course at one of our centres. Once you have completed a minimum of six months’ service, you may be able to start flexible working.
