Are you a seasoned professional in customer care looking to illuminate your career with an international leader in premium outdoor lighting? At Randstad, our recruiters are experts in connecting top-tier talent with world-class organizations. We are currently seeking a Bilingual Customer Service Representative (EN/FR) to join a growing team in Mississauga. This is a pivotal role within the Randstad Professional specialization, specifically focusing on the customer care sector.
As a global leader in talent solutions, Randstad is your partner in navigating the professional landscape. Our client, a high-end international scale-up in the lighting industry, is looking for a leader who can deliver a premium brand experience while driving process improvements. This is a permanent, full-time position located in the heart of Mississauga, ideal for someone who thrives in a "go-getter" culture and values professional fulfillment.
The Customer Service Representative is a critical member of the customer care department, responsible for delivering high-quality support to both B2B and B2C clients.
