CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Spectrum announced plans for the company to hire more than 600 new call center retention representative and management positions at its new call center on Sardis Road, Charlotte, N.C., by the end of 2023. Spectrum executives were joined by elected officials and other community and business leaders for the announcement.
“Spectrum continues to demonstrate what more and more companies are realizing every day: North Carolina is an ideal place to grow business,” said state Sen. Rachel Hunt. “Spectrum’s continued ability to expand across our state shows that we are providing the right environment and skilled workforce to provide top-notch broadband access to everyone, including those living in the furthest corners of our state.”
Retention representatives handle calls from current residential and small business customers with Spectrum Internet®, Mobile, TV, and Voice from across the company’s 41-state service area. These full-time, growth-opportunity roles offer a variety of shifts and highly competitive base pay, with lucrative commissions and incentive opportunities: Representatives who reach their targets earn more than $52,000 annually on average, with top performers earning $70,000 or more, plus incentives. Interested candidates can learn more and apply online at Spectrum’s Careers site.
The new jobs expand upon Spectrum’s existing workforce of more than 5,400 employees across the Charlotte area. The company has already hired 420 new employees at the call center and plans to hire an additional 200 employees by the end of 2023, and the new center has capacity for more than 100 additional representatives.
“Our retention team plays a vital role in matching Spectrum services with our customers’ needs as they evolve,” said Dave Lampman, Group Vice President of Residential Retention at Charter Communications, Inc., which operates the Spectrum brand of connectivity products and services. “We know that North Carolina offers an educated and motivated workforce — we already have more than 11,800 employees across The Tar Heel State, including more than 5,400 in the Charlotte area.
